Golang makes easy-to-skim code, with all the `if err != nil` after every function call.
Rust requires actual reading, like Typescript, only more detailed.
I find Go code mind numbing to read. There's just _so much of it_ that the parts of the code that should jump out at me for requiring greater attention get lost in the noise. Interfaces also make reading Go more difficult than it could be without LSP - there's no `impl Xyz for` to grep for.
