Go's one weakness is that the package source is baked into the package data in a not-automatically-fungible way. And if pkg.go.dev ever becomes a threat vector, we're gonna have a bad time.
dselect solved this ages ago with its mirrors, but at some point it seems every major package manager decided that was unnecessary complexity ("why bother? It's not like a package repo just goes down") and left it out when they built their alternatives.
So, from time to time, when a domain in the Internet goes sour it's a huge problem (whereas were a Debian mirror to go sour I'd add like one line to a config file and never notice the issue again, assuming dpkg doesn't automatically identify the problem and route around it).
