One of the thing that's always been a bit off-putting about the Go community and leadership is that it seemed that when I came across things that I perceived as flaws in the tooling or language, I often felt told off and was made to feel that it's me who is wrong for a variety of reasons. Examples of this include GOPATH, the package infrastructure, error handling, lack of generics. Rob Pike disagrees so I must be wrong.

It's kind of satisfying to see that the "Go way" wasn't the best way after all and that some of these things are actively being addressed. I hope it makes the community a bit more welcoming as well.
