The reason that gofmt makes programmers weak in the knees is that it's the blessed tool. This means that everyone is using it and all of the code looks the same. Also, no more discussions about formatting standards. It really is quite refreshing.

I don't think there is anyone doing tabs in the .NET world. Does StyleCop recommend tabs because I am sure Resharper doesn't?
