Compared to other coding standards I like the brevity: 22 pages, 31 rules.

More data! We need data about average working hours and success of teams / companies in the tech industry.

Comparing data across companies is difficult - how do you control for other factors?

Go is the new Esperanto: Slightly nicer, slightly more regular but it's not clear what problem it solves.

Check out langalot.com. Python (for example) is a nice language but I doubt it could be used to create as brisk a similar site.

Really? Straightforward, performant, concurrent code is important to a lot of people these days.

Features shared with many other languages.

Still, Go is a nice language.
