"People who are excited about C++11's new features are not going to care about a language that has so much less. Even if, in the end, it offers so much more."
I find Go too limiting and definitely not offering "so much more". The author is probably right mentioning "big teams". Sure if I have whole shebang of programmers each nibbling at small particular task and appropriate budget it will work. But comparing the amount of work per developer per time I can have with more sophisticated "traditional" languages does not put Go in any good standing in my opinion.
