I need to find it, but I remember it was "we discussed it, and no, we decided not to" sort of answer there. I did pair it with earlier discussions that I found that had "we did not like how it looks like". The whole discussion left me with a bit of eery feeling. Whole exercise (and "error handling" one that I kind of tried to participate in) left me with a bit of a sour taste. I pretty much stopped actively following golang-nuts, and now only look at proposals through meeting notes that Russ posts on github [1], where you can see accepted/not accepted. Btw, there is another saga (drama?) unfolding on github proposal discussions over sum types [2], and judging by the past experience I don't have high hopes.
