Given that all variables have to be explicitly typed (as far
as I can remember), I thought it would be even easier to do
something like Haskell type classes! So if you see
a == b
== would map to a function depending on which type clas a &
b's type belongs to. But this is all idle speculation and I
am sure I am missing something fundamental.

Agreed. Go seems like a very nice language. In a sense
everything has been done before but a good combination of
features can still be quite eye opening and provide a
pleasing, easy to use environment [Though I still prefer
Scheme :-)]
