I think it's reasonable to ask: "who is this bugging?" When I was learning Go it took me about 5 minutes to understand how slices work, and I've never had a problem with this behaviour in my work (or my coworkers' work). Also, it's very rare to see anyone in the #go-nuts IRC asking for help with slices, which leads me to believe that most people don't really have a problem understanding them. You yourself clearly have a solid understanding of them. The semantics are clearly defined in the spec and the internals are easy to understand if you read the docs.
