I'm sorry to sound like a fanboy, but this is one of the reasons I love Go: is the most readable language I know.
It is expressive, but free of magic, code says what it does, there is no hidden magic tricks, this annoys people used to other languages with more "features", but to me it is Go's greatest feature.
