Exactly.

The other jarring example of this kind of deferring logical thinking to big corps was people defending Apple's soldering of memory and ssd, specially so on this site, until some Chinese lad proved that all the imagined issues for why Apple had to do such and such was bs post hoc rationalisation.

The same goes with Go, but if you spend enough time, every little while you see the disillusionment of some hardcore fans, even from the Go's core team, and they start asking questions but always start with things like "I know this is Go and holy reasons exists and I am doing a sin to question but why X or Y". It is comedy.
