alt Hacker NewsI spoke with Aliaksandr Valialkin (author of noCopy) and he gave me his reasons:

He also gave an answer of what he would change now: https://itnext.io/go-evolves-in-the-wrong-direction-7dfda8a1...
It seems he's not happy anymore with the new direction of Go because they're implementing things from other languages.
