Research direction
Start with source/source_slice.go at lines 78-82 and read the surrounding consumer-handling code. Check how the range variable done is used inside the goroutine and whether the captured value can affect behavior. Compare the finding with the linked analyzer guidance, then leave the requested reaction classification when you have determined whether it is a bug, mitigated, or desirable behavior.
