I am willing to apologise if that is how it's perceived, but the intent is not to insult anyone, but rather to extend the Plan 9 toolchain beyond the Plan 9 scope, something the Go developers did to a great extent and something I would dearly like to retrofit to Plan 9. Getting Go in the bargain is an exciting side effect. ++L
