> You misunderstand my argument.

Apparently. I have no idea why JavaScript's position in the browser is relevant at all to the point that being able to ship in a language isn't evidence that its featureset is ideal.

I do invite you to argue the point further, though. And please continue to ask questions like this again:

"Why are you using Go? Are you solving a real problem?"

Yes, please do imagine out loud that everyone who's critical of Go is just not building real software in it. Hell, follow your "argument" to its natural consequence: anyone not using your personal flavor of Blub is probably just farting around.
