Is this also the case for professionals?

Sure. Compared to setting up for the Java application it was a walk in the
park. Part of it was brought on by ourselves but getting the Java app
built and packaged was convoluted.

I don't know how well the Go app would have worked out in the long term,
including maintenance after the original programmer left. It never saw the
light of day. That happens sometimes when the client decides to take
another path.
