Research direction
Start at pkg/controls/container/env.go lines 24-26 and inspect the analyzer warning about referencing env in the composite literal. Verify whether the range-loop reference can produce incorrect menuEnvs entries, then check the surrounding container-control code for the intended behavior. Done means the warning is addressed without changing the intended environment handling.
