The problem with cgo is it reduces portability, not that it causes issues. If whatever C you’re invoking doesn’t build on your architecture or if you need to cross-compile (last I checked), you’re out of luck.

I bet SQLite3 builds on more platforms than Go.

		It’s not about the build platform, it’s about the execution platform and not having to have a toolchain for every platform. This is especially relevant in the embedded space.
