> Go’s design caused a production issue

A simple one, if you create two separate library in Go and try to link with an application, you will have a terrible time.

I've ran into this same issue: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/65050

that's not a production issue, and it's a very niche use case

  • It's a niche use case to have software that load plugins and it just so happens those plugins are written in Go? No it's not a niche case. If all programing you do in Go is web servers than sure you won't see this.
