All I ever wanted from Julia was great a development experience, but it appears to have never quite gotten there.

As a language it has gotten there a long while ago (1.6 LTS series comes to mind).

The landscape has changed substantially since then, and now "ergonomics" has unfortunately taken lower priority due to agent-driven development.

Nevertheless I think everyone should take a page from Go's book, really, language design now should include the default development workflow.
