That’s a good point. I remember that in the earlier days of Go, there was a lot more optimism about the compiler’s future ability to statically decide more about the program than it currently does. It’s unfortunate that the language never got there.

Sadly, given Google’s new culture and all the people who have left, it seems unlikely it’ll ever get there.
