One of the reasons I use go is the production of static, self contained binaries. Wouldn't binary artifacts make that much more difficult?

Why should it? Static compiling has been a thing since compilers exist.

Dynamic linking only became mainstream in the mid-90s.

You can build self-contained Java JAR files for a while now.
