What version of Go are you using (go version)?

$ go version
go version devel go1.20-8d57f4dcef Sat Aug 20 00:56:30 2022 +0000 linux/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes, reproduces on Go 1.19.

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

linux/amd64

What did you do?

package pkg

func fn1() byte {
	arr := [5]byte{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
	return arr[0] | arr[1] | arr[2] | arr[3] | arr[4]
}

func fn2() byte {
	arr1 := [5]byte{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
	arr2 := arr1
	arr3 := arr1
	arr4 := arr1
	arr5 := arr1
	return arr1[0] | arr2[1] | arr3[2] | arr4[3] | arr5[4]
}

What did you expect to see?

Both functions to compile the same.

What did you see instead?

fn2 really does copy arr 4 times. The compiler could elide these copies, turning arr2–5 into aliases, without affecting the behavior of the program.
