The problem also affects structs that happen to have a private map or cache or callback anywhere within.

Obviously `interface{}` values are not comparable?
The comparison is explicitly allowed in the language spec, there’s no warning for doing it, and it often works depending on the types. It’s a data-dependent runtime error, which is usually hard to guarantee test coverage for.
