We put off moving to go1.14+ to give time for things to settle related to the (largely patched) kernel bug that go1.14 tickles more due to the signals generated by the preemptive scheduler (see golang/go#35777).
There is a small risk of unpatched kernels out there.
Also, go1.15 comes out in roughly a month and we'll need to move to at least go1.14 by then to continue to get security updates (since go1.13.x will no longer be maintained).
We've watched the ecosystem and waited for large infrastructure products to move to go1.14. Kubernetes and etcd, among others, have made the plunge.
Now feels like a good time.
