The subtlety missed in these conversations is that almost all the information there is for typical error handling --- that is, all the information that would be present in a typical Rust error handling scenario as well --- is encoded in the type tree of the errors.
(Rust then improves drastically on the situation with pattern matching, which would simply improve Go with no tradeoffs I can really discern, just so we're clear that I'm not saying Go's error story is at parity with Go. But I'd also point out that Rust error handling at a type level is kind of a painful mess as well.)
