Borg is a fork of Attic, not restic. Restic is also written in Go while Attic/Borg is in Python.
For me the reason to use Borg over Restic has always been that it was _much_ faster due to using a server-side daemon that could filter/compress things. The downside being you can’t use something like S3 as storage (but services like Borgbase or Hetzner Storage Boxes support Borg).
That’s probably changed with the server backend, but with the same downside.
