My wish list is a little more pedestrian:

1. High level like python, but strongly typed

2. "normal" c style syntax

3. First class support for "green thread" style concurrency, like erlang

4. First class support for dataframes and the best of python's various ML/data packages.

5. A really great ORM well integrated into the language, that can handle elastic and nosql as well as sql.

6. A batteries included web solution like laravel that handled the common web use cases like auth, a db admin, etc. Bonus points if it's write once for frontend and backend a la svelte.

7. Pretty much just steal cargo for package management.

<clears throat> umm, Go?
Now that Go has generics, it just needs operator overloading to be usable for matrices and ND arrays. :-)
