yeah, and as such have a very difficult time changing the repository or eliminating dependencies
thus we have perl, python, gcc, clang, and a whole bunch of other things in there because the tree of dependencies is more complex than a 1000 year old ficus' root system
this is also why Go itself pioneers the concept of multi-binaries, an idea which started with busybox
every architectural and engineering decision has consequences and you should not ignore the outliers that your chosen one gives you
and it's a hard problem to fix because of the highly decentralised open source development ecosystem, that's why we still have perl even though you can do all that stuff with C or python
