Go and Rust don't have old code. Talk in 30 years.

Sure, I agree that these guarantees still have to stand the test of time. So far they're holding up quite well.
If they stuck to binary libraries that would have been nice but since you have to build deps locally and match up the right versions, go and rust programs have been a constant headache for me similar to python. The version from debian repos never seems to be good enough, I have to install it from upstream and maintain it.
