> I wonder: why not go further and say "there will never be a Go 2" in order to eliminate ambiguity about this?
They did, five years ago. Albeit with an “if”.

> If the above process works as planned, then in an important sense there never will be a Go 2. Or, to put it a different way, we will slowly transition to new language and library features. We could at any point during the transition decide that now we are Go 2, which might be good marketing. Or we could just skip it (there has never been a C 2.0, why have a Go 2.0?).
> Popular languages like C, C++, and Java never have a version 2. In effect, they are always at version 1.N, although they use different names for that state. I believe that we should emulate them. In truth, a Go 2 in the full sense of the word, in the sense of an incompatible new version of the language or core libraries, would not be a good option for our users. A real Go 2 would, perhaps unsurprisingly, be harmful.

No need to guess. My man page for inet_aton says it comes from 4.3BSD: https://github.com/dank101/4.3BSD-Reno/blob/master/lib/libc/...
The earlier inet_addr from 4.2BSD has the same logic: https://github.com/dank101/4.2BSD/blob/master/lib/libc/inet/...
inet_aton and inet_addr parses addresses the obvious way. Using something like strtoul or especially sscanf would be stilted. The beauty of C pointers is that it makes simple parsing tasks very easy--perhaps too easy.

Naturally depends on the use case, yet they work good enough to be in business for 20 years.

Android 5 & 6 (only changed back into JIT/AOT due to long compile times), https://www.infoq.com/news/2014/07/art-runtime/
Unfortunely the best well known, Excelsior JET, is no longer in business, most likely due to GraalVM and OpenJ9 being available as free beer, while PTC, Aicas Codename One are safe in their domains.
There is also RoboVM (https://github.com/MobiVM/robovm) as free beer, however it actually started as a commercial product, and the acquisition from Xamarin kind of stagnated it (naturally).
