I agree with your point, but you'll have to update your example of something go can't do
> having to write a for loop to get the list of keys of a map
We now have the stdlib "maps" package, you can do:
keys := slices.Collect(maps.Keys(someMap))
With the wonder of generics, it's finally possible to implement that.
Now if only Go was consistent about methods vs functions, maybe then we could have "keys := someMap.Keys()" instead of it being a weird mix like `http.Request.Headers.Set("key", "value")` but `map["key"] = "value"`

Or 'close(chan x)' but 'file.Close()', etc etc.
