> unlike Go

What exactly does Go do here, besides being grossly more verbose and less expressive than C# (and even Java)?

Sure, there are edge cases to nominative typing systems, and some of these particular cases may be better expressible with a structural one, but that’s another discussion to have.

Sorry, this was meant to refer to simplicity and focus of Go at solving problems it was designed to solve. Not that it doesn’t suffer from its own kind of boilerplate hell (the verbosity you mention), but it does not take away its upsides.
