At the core of this is the simple fact that you have to start somewhere. The founding Go team had experience (UNIX, B, C, Plan 9, Pic, Blit, GNU C/C++, ...) and well-understood code on hand from prior work (assembler, compilers, and a linker that all worked together). Also, it is dangerous to build New in New because as you learn your mistakes and want to make big changes it is harder because that means breaking the thread by which all the system hangs together.
This is where it started--because that was practical for both reasons. Once there was Go 1, and after a few iterations, (Go 1,4) the stability was there and the promise was there and it became time to implement Go in Go. That happened. Now that is all distant memory to people and nobody's focus.
