I don't think it's as clear-cut as you make it seem. Generics greatly reduce the amount of code we need to read in exchange an slight increase in abstraction. In my opinion, the tradeoff is worth it, especially given that Go already has abstractions that are more difficult to grok than generics, which, all things considered, aren't that hard to understand.

It’s not worth it because most people tend to abuse them.
