Not "just because". Go is exactly as enterprisey as Java and C#, and for exactly all the same reasons.

And, it is not a programmer problem. It is a management problem. None of them would exist without management demand for minimally-productive languages.

What a weird hill to die on. I have a hard time believing “management” woke up one day and said: “how can we make the most minimally productive language”.

Tell me about this secret non “enterprisey” stack you are using.

Management does not make languages. They use what exists that satisfies their need for large head count. Sun and Microsoft were happy to provide it for them.
Again tell me what you think is not enterprisey then. I would like to open my mind to it.
