Most important change: float multiplier. Special thanks to juan_gandhi for this discussion!

I don't know go; so this piece looks (to me) just weird:

func expBackoff(
    ctx context.Context,
    call func() error,
    limit int,
    delay time.Duration,
    multiplier float64,
) error {

Just the language.

I see. It's my choice of formatting not anything Go-specific.

Put a long list of function args one-per-line. Thought it would be easier to read...

Hmmm... names and types

[aklepatc]

Good, bad, unusual?

To me - no. I started typing before you responded to juan gandhi, my response doesn't really add value to your explanation.

Got you. I am sorry for the noise.
