// Path-sensitive value-slot liveness (ERR step E1.8). After `v, err := f()`, the // value slot `v` is "live only where `err` is proven absent". Every read of `v` // below sits on a path where the compiler can prove `err == null`: // // • `if !err { … v … }` — proven inside the guard // • `if err { return } … v …` — proven on the fall-through // • `if err { raise } … v …` — fall-through in a failable function // • `if err { … } else { … v … }` — proven in the else branch // • `!err and ` — short-circuit keeps the proof // // A bare tag-compare (`if err == error.X`) proves NOTHING about absence — see the // rejection regression in 1047.
