https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7233#section-4.4 says that if the range cannot be satisfied because it is beyond the length of the instance, Content-Range should be returned with a 416 containing the instance length. This does not occur with http.ServeContent.

With anything HTTP... I defer to the experts to decide if we should follow the spec.

Sure, seems like a failure mode we overlooked in the implementation. Also seems like low hanging fruit for anyone looking for something to do.
