Go is a very opinionated language - IE: the language designers decided a lot of things for you, so you just code in the style that they have outlined. This leads to most code following similar styles and patterns. This improves readability of code from other people greatly.
The bar for adding specific features to the language itself is extremely high, so the overall language is simple at its core.
