+The `go vet` subcommand now includes the
+[stdversion](https://beta.pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis/passes/stdversion)
+analyzer, which flags references to symbols that are too new for the version
+of Go in effect in the referring file. (The effective version is determined
+by the `go` directive in the file's enclosing `go.mod` file, and
+by any [`//go:build` constraints](https://pkg.go.dev/cmd/go#hdr-Build_constraints)
+in the file.)

+`reflect.TypeFor` function (introduced in go1.22) from a file in a
+module whose go.mod file specifies `go 1.21`.
