Even if there aren't, it makes sense to clarify to media that this is an open source project made without any business commitments. I've seen other businesses do something similar; internally it reduces friction with the business admin when devs want to open source something.

_without any business commitments_ - not to sound trite, but when is the last time Google stood by its commitments?

Google still sells ads, doesn't it?

There already was a GO programming language before Google decided to use the name, too.

That doesn't justify them choosing an already chosen name now, does it?

Unless it's trademarked it doesn't matter in the slightest
