I feel the same way, but to defend GP, if you're dealing with unknown JSON, the experience of deserializing `any` (or `map[string]any` if you know the top-level entity is an object) can be extremely tedious.
For things like structured API requests/responses, Go's struct tags are basically exactly how I want my JSON ser/de to look.
It looks like there are a few Golang implementations of MCP. The one used in the article doesn't use tags but mcp-golang does. Tags are great! I love tags.
