Ah the rewrite that was driven by the Go team itself as a means to prove a point.

Apparently the Android team did not adopt gomobile the same way.

Yes and they are very clear about that. What matters is the end result. Shorter, simpler, higher perf code that solved a practical problem, at scale. There's no secret that Brad is a heavy for the Go team. The point is about one way to pragmatically solve a problem and ship code. That's all.

Yet every time a new SDK comes out of mountain view it still is mostly about C++, Java and Python as tier 1 support, and only occasionally with either Go or Dart support.

Also apparently having Go on Fuschia is not well seen and it will eventually be replaced by a C++17 or Rust implementation.
