I wish that were true. Unfortunately, functional composition breaks down when functions have multiple return values, as is the case for everything that returns an `err, res` pair. So even with generics added, Go is still hostile to functional programming.

If Go gets a Result<T> generic type similar to the one in Rust to replace (err, res) that would work. That seems highly unlikely, however. The node.js community went through a similar migration from (err, res) callbacks to promises and it was quite painful, I think its highly unlikely this will happen in Go.

It used to be impossible to do anything remotely like FP in Go before generics, but now I believe it's indeed quite possible.
