I am not talking about runtime dependencies, which multi-binaries and busybox address.  I am talking about the source code dependencies.   When you have 100 times the number of entities (persons/projects) providing the source code golang pulls in for the easy-peasy build, vetting is 100 times more work.

I really admire the lightning fast compiles of golang and the language features - but the security nightmare of their standard repo is something that younger programmers don't seem to understand, and is shared by other new languages.
