Yeah I don't think it's so much "we explicitly rely on this behavior, how dare you change this" as "somewhere in our mountains of maintenance-mode code that haven't seen the sun shine through an editor window in years, this behavior cancels out another bug that we never noticed". Tooling should be able to detect when code relies on this, but it's still gonna cost some non-zero amount of developer effort to touch ancient code and safely roll out a new version if it needs to be actively addressed.

If you have tests and they break with GOEXPERIMENT=loopvar, then there is a new tool that will tell you exactly which loop is causing the breakage. That's a post for a few weeks from now.
