// This file uses generics, which require language version go1.18 or later.
// The go.mod go directive is go1.17 so that testify keeps building on old
// toolchains; a //go:build constraint can only raise the language version on
// Go 1.21 and later, so that is the lowest version this file can be gated on.
//go:build go1.21

I think it might be confusing to someone using 1.21-1.26 to find that it's available under require but not available under require.Assertions.

I could probably be sold on not changing this part.

Maybe add it here just for 1.27, and seeing if there’s a demand for static-only usage in prior.

Don't mix any and interface{} in the same function declaration.
