When the `go` declaration and `go` definition were next to each other, the go function won't get a uniqufied name at all. The declaration will be overwritten by the definition. Only when the declaration is seen by others, such the callsite in `baz`, the declaration makes a difference by having the callsite use a uniqufied name.
