I feel like go-kit is quite antithetical to the Go mindset...it presents a lossy abstraction as a means of future-proofing against eventualities that will almost certainly never be encountered

to be honest it strikes me as the sort of library that excites intermediate developers who tend to over-architect

No, but combine cloud APIs, AI, and market consolidation and you will indeed see a reduction in the demand for code. I write much less code than I did ten years ago. I spend more time integrating others' code now than I do writing my own.

In ten years most industrial coders will probably be down to a hundred or so lines of new production code a year...it will be the DATA arcitects who are calling the architecture shots as it becomes clear that data architecture trmps code architecture
