+      The new function <a href="/pkg/reflect/#TypeFor"><code>TypeFor</code></a>
+      returns the <a href="/pkg/reflect/#Type"><code>Type</code></a> that represents
+      the type argument T.
+      Previously, to get the <code>reflect.Type</code> value for a type, one had to use
+      <code>reflect.TypeOf((*T)(nil)).Elem()</code>.
+      This may now be written as <code>reflect.TypeFor[T]()</code>.
