Yes, true. Having it built in in the compilation would be nice. Or at least having errcheck as a tool which already comes packed with Go.

Go has changed over time to include more things like this. Maybe one day this will be addressed.

Yeah, I was particularly glad to see the change in loop variable semantics become a stable part of the language. That was a terrible footgun.

There are other things I dislike about Go, but I do think it's improving while maintaining its better qualities, which is no small feat.
