Or the fact that many developers look at the previous methods and quite rightly say "That is a hideous method, we have moved on (and IMHO improved) from that, why the hell has a new language reverted to old and busted methods"

As I said in another comment regarding Go. If any company has the ability to create a stable, maintained CPAN / rubygems equivalent for the Go language, it would be Google.
