Google had four canonical languages: C++, Go, Java, and Python. They are defined internally in an engineering handbook. There is no such similar style guide for Go, as a a lot of what the existing guides say is "don't use x." If that were needed for Go we would have failed.

Fare enough.

Why? Even with Go there are many ways to do certain things.

I can imagine given the language's youth not everyone would write the code the best way.

I know the few times I did some Go coding, I was most likely not good enough to the canonical style.

I imagine the Go style guide would also largely boil down to 'use `go fmt`'.
