My sense is that smaller libraries are more able to evolve at their own place - e.g. the separation of django-rest from django core, or languages moving more things out of their standard library. Pre-1.0 is the easy part, we'll see how Go does is 5 or 10 years once it has a base of programs to maintain compatibility with - I predict it will find it harder to evolve and its library will fall behind.
