> - stability: the language itself is fine on that, but the ecosystem really isn't. The fact that they don't even have the package management quality of python (which I find awful already) is baffling. I don't even know how they could think "yeah, github-importing is a good idea, let's do it". Go is eight years old tomorrow and you still have to rely on third-party tooling to do proper imports that don't burn your house.

Google operates on a mono-repo basis, as I understand it (from speaking to ex-googlers.) All libraries etc. etc. all under one big repo. If you think about how that would appear to end tooling consuming it, the approach taken with imports makes sense. It's lousy for the rest of us outside of the google mono-repo ecosystem, but it does make sense.
