You can have a goose (unepxorted) that is created via NewGoose() (exported - really a constructor). Of course within a package there is nothing to stop you doing the wrong thing. I really like Go. But I do find myself occasionally writing overly verbose types just to avoid this issue. Which, if I’m honest with myself, is a bit silly.

There’s a good counter argument to using to unepxorted types like this below.
