This is commoditization. People "tried and reinvented" the wheel many times back in the days out of lack of time, knowledge, legal/licensing, essential features, trying to be smart or many other reasons. And then there are more libraries today that solve the same thing way better. That automatically makes all the old ones legacy. Its like inflation, why take money away from people when you can print new ones?
Today, while I love the simplicity of Go, I shudder to fathom how much copy-pasted lines of Golang code I wrote will be commoditized in next year or two, and thus automatically creating legacy. And there will be nobody to give a ring to except my past self.
