I agree.

I'm curious though--is it true that Go brings its runtime? I'm of the impression that the runtime is only compiled in if you actually use it, but if your library is just `func Add(a, b int) int { return a + b }`, would linking against it still bring in the runtime?

And to reiterate, this is only a curiosity. Even if you could take care to avoid importing the runtime, I wouldn't think that it's worth the while.
