I think we all want to stick our noses in this thread. I'm going to stick
my nose in it too :)

Space, I don't think you'll ever be happy as a result of this discussion,
no matter what evidence or arguments others provide you. I think the fact
is that you were burned by the outcome of the generics proposal. You didn't
have the time to review the draft proposal and engage with the discussion
early, and you disagree with the resulting outcome. That's unfortunate and
I'm sorry it happened. I hope you don't feel that people are trying to
convince you that you weren't burned. Nothing feels worse than having your
concerns trivialized.

However, you have to understand that just because you were burned doesn't
mean that those around you making these decisions are bad actors. There are
probably small ways that this process could have been improved, but I don't
think they would have changed the outcome. The reality is that after many
iterations, the Go team created a proposal that a large enough number of Go
users found beneficial for it to be accepted. I know you disagree with
them, but our responsibility as members of this community is to
exercise our right to disagree without resorting to attacks on character. I
hope I've been able to address your concerns and disagree with you without
making you feel I'm attacking your character.

To those who are still attempting to provide evidence that the generics
proposal process was conducted in good faith, I think you've done
everything you need to do and it's probably best to just let this one go.
