Well said. As a C++ programmer I always find Go rubs me the wrong way. Like they want to make my life difficult. I think you hit the nail on the head that it feels condescending. My visceral reaction to not being able to write a standard library as performant as the provided one is “this is a toy language”. I know it’s not and I know I have to use C to do that in Python, but still.
