Originally I replied here that I thought you were both missing the point (but I was wrong).

I wrote: It has a garbage collector and goroutines, so clearly it is not trying to be a systems programming language.

Then ... I saw that it does indeed pitch itself as a systems programming language. So, I guess you both are right.

If Gossamer were to drop that claim, then I'd say it looks impressive to me. I have often wanted this particular mix of language features.

Gleam comes close if you're comfortable with functional programming: https://gleam.run/

It doesn’t have a garbage collector, it uses reference counting with a cycle detector. So, no GC pauses. It should be suitable for hard real time systems.
