> and a compiled modern language

Let's just say different people have different opinions on this one. Personally, I find Go to be a big regression in language design given modern PLT research, and wouldn't use it unless forced (e.g. terraform providers). Other people have other opinions: a friend I respect a lot has great success in the Go community.

I'm telling you that because if, as a Go enjoyer, you're baffled by the writings of a Rust enjoyer, it's very likely the result of different perspectives rather than silliness. And if your conclusion is "just use go", you're probably the one being silly.
