Whenever the compiler refuses to compile because of an unused var:

Hey Jeff, we know the variable is unused. WE CAN SEE THE SQUIGGLE

Not a go dev. Is it really preventing compilation or is it just some hardened linting rules? Most languages can prevent compile on those errors if tweaked, but that seems bad if it's not a warning

Yes but I've never found it to be that annoying.
