I cant really agree on Rust. It does take a bit more time to write the same code in rust vs go. But in my experience the code is much more likely to be incorrect in go than it is in rust. Which over longer periods means rust is easier to maintain.

On the other hand, most pieces of software in this world are kind of mediocre code written by unmotivated employees within tight timelines.

In such context, I think Go might be a better or at least, more realistic, compromise in most cases.
