The author list features, shows you can't solve them easily with go and then conclude that go is not good.

With similar argument, I could list every feature of xml, show that they are not easily solvable with json and conclude that json is not good.

I think JSON is a pretty terrible markup language.
See the very end of the article :)
> that json is not good

Json became the defacto serialization format, but in my opinion, Json isn't good for everything. Json and all its tools around it keeps trying to be like XML.

Exactly the point surely? Just because json isn't good for everything doesn't mean its not good. Just because you wish json had xslt support (for example), doesn't mean its not good either.
