Research direction
Start at plugins/s3/check-s3-bucket-visibility/main.go lines 133-135 and read how excludeBucketsMap is used. Verify the analyzer finding against the loop's pointer behavior, then run the repository's relevant Go checks. Done means excluded buckets retain the intended values without the reported range-variable issue.
