Hi Mr. Bushnell,
The code block identifier, in Go are { }. They are already part of the
syntax if I'm not mistaken.
Go proudly aiming to be a simplifying, lowest common denominator language
makes sense to me.
In that sense, the { signs tightly bound to declarations and control
statements is redun
actually python is very normal, in that it does not confuse encapsulation
with syntax. Go has the credit for exploring this exciting new frontier I
think.

its luxury that sudden support for allman style would be backwards
compatible and future proof. No airplanes would crash.

You must be kidding,
Dude, you are right. This confusing coding style with syntax in Go can be
fixed by forking and applying a rediculously small patch. Jeez, lets stop
complaining as u rightfully suggested.

This suggestion the funniest I have seen in any language:
/*--*/
if x < 0 {
{
return sqrt(-x) + "i"
}}
/*-*/

was looking for!
Thank you Neutrino, both Go-style and Allman style fetished devs
That's true, so it would be more useful in C than in Go.
However, please everybody stop calling it K&R style, because it is not.

but, I have to say, wow,
I never realized that curly bracket placement was that important and solved
so many of the problems for Google!
Do you realize that the Go lang devs themselves are not actually in
agreement about the original motivations for constraining the language in
this way. Some quot
On this last comment, I would like to comment,
Overall I agree with last commenter, the coolest programmer is the one that
does not have any quarrels about style, just gets along with the group and
helps get the job done.
That being said, golangs approach to braces a part of logical syntax is
