Interesting to see that both sides seemed to have been fighting for what they believed to be a better idea but neither recognized the points where they inadvertently escalated the divisions between them.
I hope at one point we can just move on and forward.
Only if something changes regarding how major external contributions to Go's syntax, API, and tools (e.g. not just someone adding support for a new architecture, anything that requires real decisions and tradeoffs) are received and handled.
The internet never forgets, unfortunately.
