$ go version
go version devel go1.23-2f642683 Fri May 17 01:23:00 2024 +0000 windows/amd64

the full set of settings is useful for us to pick out details that the reporter may have omitted themselves. -changed should only be used when we're unsure where those settings came from.

I don't think we should do this.

If an environment variable does not print in go env -changed, except implementation bug and having a different $GOROOT/go.env or environment variable non have default value, if the other environment variable is not printed, it means that it is now the default value, and can get the same without setting the environment variable on your computer.

It's much easier to follow to just have everything in one place without having to remember the default settings for a specific environment. I don't think the contents of go env are really getting in the way in bug reports.

I think this is too big of a caveat to ignore. Also, the default value may not be the same for all environments, e.g. GOMOD, GOWORK will print the resolved values.

We're not going to do this. Closing.
