We've come to the same conclusion with coffeescript but for a different reason. We're starting to move away from it to simplify our build process.
We have tons of little modules that are all in coffeescript that need to be compiled to js before we run component-build. Just not having to deal with that step would simplify everything. We're starting to value simplicity over fancy things at scale.
Kind of made me appreciate the thesis of Go a bit more now. I was initially unimpressed with the lack of language features in Go. Once you get to a larger sized codebase you start caring less about fancy features and more about agility and build times funny enough.
