IMO, Golang does the best job of maintaining a high quality standard library. I disagree that modules should be moved into the external package ecosystem. However, Go isn't preinstalled on most systems like Python.
I have to develop enterprise software that runs across a wide range of platforms, and being able to take advantage of the fact that Python is pre-installed on all of these systems with its standard library is a godsend.
