V fixes most of these, but it doesn't use Go's runtime:

I get you want to compare with Go, let have some benchmark. Despite V being new, the difference is quite insignificant for short-lived process in most case. You are more likely use Go for production at this time.

Depends on the use case and persons involved. Nevertheless, V is on a constant march towards 1.0, and has been doing so at a higher pace than most other languages.

And, its not necessarily an "either or" or "us versus them" situation, people can use both or whatever else "floats their boat". It's a bit disheartening to see programmers that fall into being so closed-minded or disparaging to other options or something new.

It also doesn’t work :)
You have never used it or are on an unnecessary disrespectful troll crusade. It works very well, for many of its fans, and keeps improving and getting better (at a high constant pace).

Watch, learn, download, and enjoy this V program (https://youtu.be/6H7dprSwr74), among so many other examples (https://github.com/vlang/V/tree/master/examples).
