It's a little presumptuous to assume the teams and developers using Go are lying to themselves about Go vs. they've made the calculations and like the tradeoffs. Opinionated language and tooling plus good enough performance without a runtime may be worth more to them than the two (?? I lost count trying to find them in the article) issues the author brings up.

I think it is a bit naive to think that these sorts of decisions are made by competent technical people.

In my experience these decisions are made by managers that have "Peter Principled" past their competence.
