I agree with you in spirit, but you should be a bit more up-front about the fact that Conformal's bitcoind implementation is written in the "Go" language.
There's nothing wrong with that, but there also isn't much demand outside of Conformal for a bitcoin client written in Go.
Even if that weren't the case, your post implies that the Bitcoin community is the development community.
No, actually, your post is the one implying that connection. From what I've seen, non-developer users care a lot about the size of a project's developer base, both actual and potential. They see it as a component of project viability.
Regarding the kooky attempt to launch a debate on the merits of the Go language: that's something I've said nothing about, and it's completely beside my point.
