@p1 is assigned to @setup_buffer and then we manually assign a NUL-byte at the first index. This renders the following strlen() call useless. Moreover, we don't need to reassign p1 to setup_buffer for any reason -- neither do we need to manually set a NUL-byte at the end. strscpy() resolves all this code making it easier to read.
Even considering the path where @str is falsey, the manual NUL-byte assignment is useless as setup_buffer is declared with static storage duration in the top-level scope which should NUL-initialize the whole buffer.
