> A lot of people mean different things by systems programming.

Actually, no. It meant one thing until Go proponents tried to market their language and realized that their target audience didn't actually care.

Several of the initial Go designers were doing "systems programming" in the 1960s under the exact same meaning.

I'd also s/didn't actually care/got confused/ in your last sentence too.
