It's also important to note that Go was designed for programmer productivity and Rust wasn't.

GC is incredible productivity boost which is why no recent language (except Rust) does manual memory management.

Compile times in Go are a fraction of Rust compile times, which is another productivity boost.

Go gives you one good way to do concurrency, Rust believes in tyranny of choice.

Without mentioning that you don't paint the whole picture, just the parts that are favorable to Rust.
