Once I listed around 10 technical criticism points here a year ago without insulting and I got banned. I am just not going to waste a day trying to convince anybody with anything while most of the criticism has been stated a million times by a million people all over the internet.

Well, I haven't read it, nor have I seen much other criticism of Go. If you post here, it is up to you to make your argument, not for your readers to seek it out.

I have seen plenty... but not all that much substance. Much of it had the form of "How could they be so stupid to make those design choices!", as if the author's preferred approach was The Only Right Way. I've seen criticism that said "They couldn't have known anything about Modula 3 for them to make that choice!", when in fact Rob Pike talked about stealing an aspect of the object file format from Modula 3. Yeah, he knew it, and probably knew it in more detail than the critic did.

Apart from "They should have done it the way I like!", the main criticism I have seen is lack of generics. That's a pretty common complaint, from a lot of different people.
