you're not wrong, but i don't think that you're presenting the argument in a way that is going to be well received.

hopefully both gccgo and any llvm backed implementations eventually mature to production grade. I think the thing that'll hold them back is that the toolchain is (by definition) completely different. 'go build .' is pretty nice.

the biggest value they bring is that unclear parts of the specification=be brought to light and clarified.
