The problem isn't that you couldn't hardcode a scarier value; it's that you have to demonstrate a plausible scenario in realistic code where an attacker controls both the value and the address it's written to.

While you're wondering why I keep claiming Go is a memory-safe language, you can also go ask the ISRG, which says the same thing I am at (checks notes) https://www.memorysafety.org/.
