Python has a quite random collection of stuff, and it's often quite low quality and people don't use it anyway. I wouldn't say it is close to Go.

I haven't used Java for a decade or so but as I recall its standard library was pretty bare bones (similar to Rust).

Apparently C# has a pretty comprehensive standard library but I've never used it.
