A comment on Stunned by Go.

This behavior is explicitly defined in the godoc for io. I don’t see why the author should be "stunned" by a function doing exactly what it says it does.

That'll be because it's only been in the docs since they reported their issue.

You're both correct. It's been in the docs for io.Copy for a long time, and was only recently added to the http docs.
