How can you call it a defect when it might have been a deliberate decision? Your whole post sounds like you're upset Google didn't hire you lmao

The entire post is embarrassing and makes me think that Google made the correct decision. Also, it seems that people that want to change the default behaviour can simply use the TCPConn.SetNoDelay function.
Decisions deserve documentation (because a footgun warning is preferable to spontaneous unintended penetration).
It is documented. https://pkg.go.dev/net#TCPConn.SetNoDelay
> The default is true (no delay), meaning that data is sent as soon as possible after a Write.
Huh, really? There is public API to change behavior, thats about it. There maybe a million page documentation by now if every decision needed a documentation.
As the amount of confusion and back-and-forth in this story thread proves, such topics deserve more attention rather than being lumped in alongside less consequential matters. Ideally the goal is to spread the knowledge and expertise to as many humans as possible by making it accessible.
