I don't understand why anyone would be (strongly) against this proposal. If I understand it correctly, it's just a shortcut. That is, the old (existing) way would still work. If anyone didn't like "try", well, don't write your code that way.
It would also appear to be amenable to an automated tool that would convert to or from try-style.
Given that, why would people have strong feelings against? Because they think go needs something better, and if this passes, they'll never get it?
