Because using interface{} for the same tasks fits so much better and has so much better performance right?

Tons of languages have implemented Generics -- it's not rocket science since at least 2 decades.

If the Go team is not interesting in working on the thing, then I doubt they would be really evaluating any "proposal".

I think Generics are just low priority for the Go team. Maybe we will see them in Go 2.0
