Otherwise you're right - but all languages have sharp edges.
I'm using Go on my current project and I've gotten a lot further a lot more quickly and with better performance and reliability than I would have using Django, Rails, or Node.
Because I'm not in a hurry I thought it would be fun to write a simple custom server/router/middleware bundle around net/http without using any 3rd party packages. From a cold start it all turned out much easier than expected, and so far the whole thing is under 500 loc.
Being careful around a few sharp edges seems like a small price to pay.
