I switched to Go years ago because I know that code I wrote a decade ago is still going to work. And that guarantee is even more ironclad in recent years with modules and vendoring.

With a Go project, I can leave it to sit for 3+ years and then pick it back up and add a feature without any issues. I've never had that with a Python project. (and this isn't even about the 2-to-3 situation, I just mean minor version to minor version and packages)
