Oh, well, that’s definitely not right.  Guix does not download
individual files when fetching packages — it downloads archives that
definitely do contain the .go files.  So the question is… where did they
go once “guix pull” finished?

Does “guix gc --verify=repair,contents” (run as root) really not tell
you anything useful?
