What did you do?

I ran:

 go mod why github.com/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock

and it added that dep to my go.mod file. I didn't expect it to add it to the file, if it wasn't already there.

I think you wanted go mod why -m instead. go mod why works on packages, so if it's given a package that doesn't belong in any of the modules it knows about, it must then resolve that new module (thus adding it to go.mod).
