Go has 25 keywords, C has 32; it's an easier language. Even without the garbage collection, Go's memory management is easier and safer (memory is automatically zeroed, no pointer arithmetic). Go's toolchain is portable and straightforward.

TL;DR it keeps having advantages over C even if you takeaway GC and goroutines.
