How is that different from "If you don't know how to use the tool (Go), either you learn it or you just delegate that job to someone who knows it."?

> But defending the practice

Woah there cowboy, I wasn't advocating an architectural decision suitable for a FAANG. I was "defending" the position of "why you an extra tool for this one program that has no other dependencies?"

> of having your application code also responsible in dealing with deployment and packaging smells a lot of "coders are gonna code".

In much the same vein, switching to Ansible, Fabric, etc simply to install a single binary to a single place smells a lot like "resume-driven-development".
