Talked this one over with the team, and the general consensus was that this entry (even if reworded to be "Be Aware of Shadows") should probably not be included.

There are legitimate uses for shadowed variables, and we would rather not turn the list of proverbs into a catalog of Go language "gotchas".

I'll reply to Paul directly.
