Because real languages allow creating your own abstractions to fill the gaps, Go doesn't. Witness the total lack of decent error handling and data structures; despite probably thousands of people trying their best from user code. It's the iPhone of programming languages.

For a programming language, I much prefer function over form. Same goes for gadgets, but that's another story.
