I think if this comment accurately describes your philosophy then Rust may not be the language for you. This is not a criticism, just an observation. Bryan Cantrill talks about this in "software as reflection of values" [1]. Safety without a runtime is Rust's primary super power, and it fully commits to it by not allowing for affordances that compromise safety as much as possible. If this is simply accidental complexity for you then I am not sure Rust will ever evolve to satisfy you? If you/your team thinks Go makes better tradeoffs there then it's perfectly fine to use it instead - I would say it's even the right choice as IMO, these things matter as much for social dynamics as they do for technical reasons.
