Research direction
Start with cmd/snap/cmd_recovery.go at lines 104-113 and inspect the range loop over systems, including the references passed to shortPublisher and notesForSystem. Determine whether the analyzer's reported reference to sys represents a real bug, a mitigated issue, or desirable behavior, then classify it with the corresponding reaction described in the issue.
