@hariso is this related to current work? Should we pull this in?

[hariso]

@simonl2002 It isn't, the issue is present when specgen is not used too. To my knowledge, arrays are rarely used in Go code, so no need to pull this in right now.

When would we actually want to use a fixed-size array in a config? 🤔

My guess is rarely (but I've still opened because it's a valid type). That's why we removed it from the board (I just noticed we didn't remove the triage label). In the Go code I've read so far, I haven't seen more than a handful arrays.:)
