That's just a glorified make rule. There's nothing inherently hidden or complex that it generates, unlike macros

I have written Go professionally for close to 10 years. The only time I encountered go:generate is in yacc parsers deep within libraries. A regular Go developer might go for years without realizing that it even exists. Compare this to C macros.
