Go and Rust have different idioms and syntax. But they occupy broadly similar paradigms.
For example, you don’t need to relearn how to do iteration like you would with a logic or pure functional language. You wouldn’t need to concepts like methods, like you would if you were coming from a stack based language. Etc
Go and rust have very little in common. If you consider them to be the same paradigm that's fine. But I don't think most people would as rust leans more functional.
And that’s the point I was always making. Rust takes inspiration from different languages than Go. But there is a huge amount of borrowed experience you can lean on when switching between Go and Rust. You’re not starting from scratch.
Perhaps the real problem here is that developers stick to a subset of similar imperative languages and then moan that minor differences are hard to reason about?
