Someone else and not an expert. But Maybe types are implemented with Monads, Maybe is a common monad.

Its how rust does error handling for example, you have to test a return value for "something or nothing" but you can pass the monadic value and handle the error later, in go you have to handle the error explicitly (nearly) all the time.
