Writing and debugging code in Go is extremely more pleasurable than debugging, say, python. I write Go all day while our data scientists write python. Unfortunately python gives those guys enough rope to hang themselves and me too. It's simply harder (not impossible of course) to write unmaintainable code in a limited, static language like go.

Python in a nutshell: What you gain in flexibility and terseness, you more than lose in needing 100% unit test coverage, because every line could fail to execute (with an error that many other languages would find at compile time).

Yeah, I wouldn't want to maintain a large Python codebase either.
