I could've sworn we got "sets" in the Go's standard library along with the "maps" module but... apparently not? Huh.


Almost made it into 1.18 but looks like it doesn't add enough value and has some open questions like what to use for a backing data type and what complexity promises to make.

Honestly insane in 2025 to not have a generic Set.
