There is a proverb in Turkish that means “One madman (ein Chinese) threw a stone into a well, forty wise men couldn't get it out.” This discussion is a bit like that.
Turkish proverb: "Bir deli bir kuyuya taş atmış, kırk akıllı çıkaramamış."
Previously, golang sub reddit came to the top in golang searches. The first title on the subreddit was "Why people hate Go?" was the title. Now go.dev comes first and reddit is below without title.

Quote from Ian Lance Taylor (Google Principal Engineer)
"Now a bit of personal history. The Go project was started, by Rob, Robert, and Ken, as a bottom-up project. I joined the project some 9 months later, on my own initiative, against my manager's preference. There was no mandate or suggestion from Google management or executives that Google should develop a programming language. For many years, including well after the open source release, I doubt any Google executives had more than a vague awareness of the existence of Go (I recall a time when Google's SVP of Engineering saw some of us in
the cafeteria and congratulated us on a release; this was surprising since we hadn't released anything recently, and it soon came up that he thought we were working on the Dart language, not the Go language.)"
I don't understand why someone who has so much open source information, has the intelligence to learn C-level languages, and has a certain experience in the industry, would ask such a question.
C # creator Anders Hejlsberg made a statement a few years after the .net platform came into being, recognizing that data was very important and admitting that they were developing linq.
