https://golang.org/cmd/cgo/#hdr-Passing_pointers

When passing a pointer to a field in a struct, the Go memory in question is 
the memory occupied by the field, not the entire struct. When passing a 
pointer to an element in an array or slice, the Go memory in question is 
the entire array or the entire backing array of the slice. 

Why do structs and arrays have this difference?
