A good reminder. It is surprising first time you encounter it.

Same for Rust. As https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/io/fn.copy.html says, std::io::copy can use copy_file_range(2), sendfile(2), or splice(2).

What would you prefer?

I do think it is criminal this is not documented (https://pkg.go.dev/io#Copy), but I think io.Copy is fine as an API.

Interesting premise for a post, but I had to stop midway due to the AI slop writing adding meaningless information.
