What exact problems does it exactly solve for you?
For me, it is overall freedom question.
Let's the choice to the persons that want to use generics or not.
why to reject this generic feature if we can add it as orthogonal thing
without harmful impacts on other things (e.g. compilation time and so on).

Does this generics guide you into good design?

IMHO,
a generics solution must handle both "generic algorithms" and "generic
data structures".
Also, here the restrictions part is too long -- it shows that it doesn't
fit well with current design of Go.

In my opinion generic functions are the most needed kind of generics. It
is easier to do without generic types than without generic functions.
Furthermore, the former probably implies the latter, so a minimal way to
start is with generic functions.
I have written down my idea about the simplest possible way to add
generic functions to Go.
