>because go developers are sick of being pure and like to type shorter things

"go developers" is not a homogenous group. I write Go and am pretty happy with the language design as it is. I'm also fearful of it becoming a kitchen sink language because of a vocal minority who want Go to be more like language X, instead of just going and writing in language X.

There's plenty of things could be added to make code more concise, but they come with a hidden cost.
