Hi TL, I can't talk on behalf of the creators of the language; but from my personal experience; it makes code more succinct and easier to write; something more or less like "doing more with less" if you know what I mean. It's one the the features I love the most in Go. It just makes programming more interesting. Rather spending much time writing a lot of code which I think doesn't make much sense in today's programming world where the programmer's time is very expensive compared to hardware. Le's just say it reduces the number of lines immensely in code.
In all that feature is awesome! Hope it clears your doubts. Cheers!
