Go is 80/20 language: https://blog.kowalczyk.info/article/d-2025-06-26/go-is-8020-language.html

Good piece, a bit misleading on a couple of Go details but essentially right I think. I spent my last 20 years of employment working in Java-heavy BigTech shops, and they’ve been making Java progressively worse for decades by adding fripperies at the cost of hideous complexity. Looks like Go will avoid that fate.
