What if Google spent all that time and money on something from the outside instead of inventing their own language? Like, Microsoft owns npm now.
Actually, I'd say this is where Go has a real advantage. Are any other mainstream languages both garbage-collected (for ease of development) and native-compiled (for ease of distribution)?
Also if you're ok being dirty, short-lived processes can just leak. Some of those Go CLIs are probably not even GCing before the program exits.
