I think you're missing the point of the basic type system: simplicity. It's a bigger win than you think when it comes to attracting new developers ...and that brings us full-circle to the blog post: rounding the corners so that the developers don't cut themselves and avoiding ideas that require developers to get out of their comfort-zones is exactly what made Java so successful. It put OO within the reach of mortals who were unwilling or unable to absorb C++. Go, being simple and unadventurous could very well skyrocket into the Java/COBOL stratosphere. |

I look forward to the next wave of off-shoring Go projects then.
