Do you want to parsing your language to require implementing the typechecker and using shotgun heuristics, all so you can use <> instead of []? Compiler writers die for your sins in code. Let them do things that can drastically simplify things everywhere, instead of suggesting that they're intellectually jerking themselves off. Not that they're immune to that.
EDIT: Apologies, after a bit I realized the above is a bad comment.
Separation of concerns is a common pattern in programming. It allows for things to be testable and changes to be more localized. This is an example of that.
lots of things in Go are very annoying, but this isn't one of them. being able to parse the language without type information makes parsing way easier and faster, which you definitely care about in at least one case - syntax highlighting in your editor.
So you don't have to wait as long for obvious errors. Anywhere near as long, like a couple orders of magnitude in many cases - milliseconds vs minutes.
Allowing ambiguity isn't just a style decision, it pushes error detection later, where you have enough info that it's no longer ambiguous.
Why?
It looks like a pretense at purity for the sake of purity.
