(#spvh6fa) @xuu@txt.sour.is And you’re right, it only really saves a single line. I think I’ve even commented on a similar discussion a few years ago as well where I showed concretely the abrustdity of the community wanting to change this. If I recall, the whole pattern of:

if err != nil {
    ...
}

basically accounts for <1-3% of your codebase in the first place.

The entire thing (fuss) is really just pathetic IMO.
