Since Go makes concurrency easier and encourages its use, there’s going to be a lot more concurrency bugs. By contrast languages like Python don’t even have proper parallel threads, so fewer people will write concurrent python programs and fewer bugs will arise. This is a confounding factor found in one sort or another throughout the survey.

It’s good that they did this research but unfortunately they couldn’t account for everything.

They talk about this, and did do some sort of things to account for it a little. That's why the conclude that more so then overall defect, languages are more correlated to categories of defects.
