I'm sure this depends on engineering culture, but at Google, where Go was born, there is "one way to write C++" and that is dictated by the style guide.

You have to learn many restrictions, a number of which feel arbitrary/highly subjective, and follow that. Of course, the style guide evolves over time so it's not like legacy code is consistent with new code.

The end result is that I much prefer the Go way of having fewer options in the language, instead of having those options in the language but restricting them via policy.
