What takes 3 lines in Python, takes 10-30 on Go.
Which is positive mind you, but they would be better served by adopting PyPy.
Code reviewers glazing over copy-pasted boilerplate blocks can more easily lose track of the whole, and miss an error which is obvious when the whole is expressed in 10 lines.
There is some optimal range of expressive density for comfortable use by humans. APL or K likely above that level, and Go feels below it, not as low as COBOL, but still.
