Hello,

The idea behind modules is broken, a sane multiparadigm programming language must have shared link library capability,
While you are removing shared library support:

cmd/go: remove -buildmode=shared (not c-shared) #47788

Without even caring about legal issues,

We have been using shared libraries since 2016 with go and yet you claim nobody uses it,
Modules break shared library why not removing or modifying modules,

I have very good reason, legal licenses,

It is not possible to statically link all code in a commercial project if the license does not allow it.

This is really a dup of #47788.

For context: note that GOPATH is the only build mode that existed before modules, and is being deprecated/removed. We can't have zero build modes, so removing modules is equivalent to keeping GOPATH builds.
