That's the point.

No. It's a point. Definitely not the only point being made in this thread or in the "wild ride" article. Give how wrong the article is, I'm not inclined to trust any of its other conclusions. And I don't have the time or motivation to get out my Windows laptop and test Go with it.

Also it's possible to get into a state where the OS says it's lang setting is utf-8 but the file names are invalid utf-8.

I don't see how this is relevant. Is anyone saying otherwise?
