I agree it was the wrong solution. The problem is that Go is quite popular and lots of code has been written in a language that cannot be fixed. And that is also a people problem, because living daily with a programming language feels like a marriage.
People keep fixing the unfix-able rather than moving on. I see the same happening with Python.
Python has gotten a lot better over the years. Though I'm not sure exactly which problem(s) with Python you are talking about, there are still plenty left.
