_content/doc/faq: clarify the explanation of method sets
I had a small discussion with @ianlancetaylor here: https://groups.google.com/g/golang-nuts/c/uon32LDerjM/m/dvg0mxbwAAAJ?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer I would like to clarify this entry about method sets a bit because the current explanation is a bit confusing. I believe there is no reason for the Write method of Buffer to use a value receiver. In this case, the sentence about the compiler's ability to implicitly take addresses doesn't make sense. What I believe is implied here is a hypothetical situation where the code from the example is allowed by Go, and then it is noted that this makes no sense as the result would be lost in the caller.
