Go doesn't really have the draw problem. Scoring is sharper in go, so even with integer komi you don't see enough draws to really be a problem. Only reason you _really_ need non-integer komi is if you're running a tournament or rating system that can't accomodate them at all.

Even on 9x9, like look at GoQuest for example, they must have thousands of game a day at 7 komi and ~nobody complains if there's a jigo, it just means the game was really close.

In chess the problem is just high level play has _so_ very many draws, so it can be worth trying to reduce that.

In go you get a draw once in a while. In chess you get a draw by default and have to really work to avoid it (assuming you're at a level vastly vastly higher than I am).
