error: local variable is never mutated

Is is possible to add "autofix" to use variable like:

var a = 0;
_ = &a; // autofix

Currently, what it does is:

var a = 0;
_ = a; // autofix

A proposal for this was rejected, as _ = &x is a dirty trick and shouldn't be encouraged. mlugg left a nice explanation in #1949

So what's the workaround, given that even ZLS with autofixes can't help programmer to reduce their cognitive load, and pastes incorrect autofixes? Thank you.

I hope someday it would be pleasure to write in Zig.

Currently it is just a nice build system with its own programming language
