In Go, a feature needs to have an extremely good reason to be added, and even then it's only added with care and caution.
In other languages, pointless features are added because maintainers are afraid, or not empowered to say... "yeah, we get it, but no, we will not add cruft to the language because you can't write your own 2 line function to achieve the same, no matter how hard you dunk on us on Twitter, it's take it or leave it, but you won't tell us how to run this project"
