Nothing in Go pushes you towards using a domain specific templating language rather than Sprintf, only education (and culture) can do that.

So programmers _will_ use Sprintf, because it's one of the first things they'll have been taught, and Sprintf doesn't make dealing with encoding any easier or explicit than string interpolation.

Having string interpolation doesn't mean people can't or won't use domain specific templating languages, and not having it won't make it any more likely that they will.
