So Go only keeps your coworkers from writing code that's too clever for you to understand if you don't let them write certain kinds of code? But then Go isn't doing anything, and it's you who's keeping your coworkers from writing code that's too clever for you to understand.

People can write bad code in any language if you let them. Film at 11.
Right, that's my point. I'm trying to refute the claim that Go is somehow an exception to that rule.
Go can be better at this without being perfect at it. No one worth talking to would claim go prevents all bad or confusing code.
