I Just happened to look at below comment on *WriteString* ```// WriteString appends the contents of s to the buffer, growing the buffer as // needed. The return value n is the length of s; err is always nil. If the // buffer becomes too large, WriteString will panic with ErrTooLarge.``` >`err is always nil` and it panics if the buffer is very large Can someone explain to me why do this method returns an error then?
