Oh yeah good point.
Is there any way to find out if an array is a slice of another array?
No. If there would, it would be a rather advanced function. Allow me to
reiterate my suggestion: it's likely you have a simple problem with a
simple solution based on slices, which are a simple abstraction.
Therefore I suggest you rethink a bit of your design, and it's possible
you won't need assumeSafeAppend et al.

Yeah, seems like even if it was, it wouldn't solve the problem in all
cases. I'll try going around the problem, thanks.
