You see, GOPATH crossed a line. Go is opinionated, which is fine, but with GOPATH its opinions extended beyond my Go work and into the rest of my system. As a naive new Go user, I was prepared to accept their opinions on faith - but only within their domain. I already have opinions about how to use my computer. I knew Go was cool, but it could be the second coming of Christ, and so long as it was annoying to use and didn’t integrate with my workflow, I (rightfully) wouldn’t care.
