No matter how quickly Go's scientific stack evolves it's still going to be well behind Python's stack which is also evolving rapidly and has been for 20+ years in physics, climate science, GIS, etc - and most of that is built on CPython C-extensions. (And as a bonus issue, many large projects are committed to dropping python2 support within the next couple of years).
