This (among other topics) comes up frequently in Go discussions.

No one should say that Go is a replacement for C/C++ for all projects, however, it could be argued that most new, typical projects could be used with Go as opposed to C/C++/Python/etc.

There must be very few languages in the history of programming languages that could be considered complete replacements for others and that does not take anything away from those languages.
