> Go was to solve a Google problem of devs that needed to write system management programs, not systems themselves.

What's the difference? The opposite, so to speak, of system is script, and I don't think system management falls into the scripting category. A system management system is a system too. But that isn't what they were talking about anyway. They were talking in the context of building servers (think like a HTTP server). That was clearly spelt out.

I understand that the Rust crowd has reimagined system to mean something akin to kernel, much like they have reimagined enums to be akin to sum types. Taking established words and coming up with entirely new meanings for them is what they like to do. But that reimagining has no applicability outside of their little community. This is not how the industry in general considers it.
