I understand that is the Go philosophy. I care more about what is practical than dogmatic. It seems clear to me as a complex library author that the type system leads to way too much glue code, which is expensive to write and maintain.

As a Go developer of a few years now, I don't find it that way. I've found it to be very easy to write the glue code, because its largely the same as other glue code, and I find it easy to maintain because the plain control flow makes finding bugs easy. But perhaps the takeaway here is that, because Go certainly is opinionated, its a way of doing business that works for some and not others. And that's cool.
