Except the Go's implementation is not as capable as Java's one.

Phil Walder delivered a design within Go's team goals.

Java team has told nothing to Go's team, they have acknowldeged their bias anti-generics.

". They are likely the two most difficult parts of any design for parametric polymorphism. In retrospect, we were biased too much by experience with C++ without concepts and Java generics. We would have been well-served to spend more time with CLU and C++ concepts earlier."

I have no idea what you think is on the other side of that exception. Please clarify.



No need to outsource words. If I wanted to converse with Leapcell, I'd go to him directly.

Especially when it doesn't even begin to address the concern. The disconnect is not in where Go generics are limited, but where you find the exception. There is nothing that I can find to "except against". What was "Except" in reference to?
