It’s important to be able to discern between a method and a function that returns that type.

https://pkg.go.dev/time?tab=doc#Date shows an example of this.

Is there an alternative you suggest?

What about an asterisk or italicized lower case c for constructors and nothing for everything else

Also worth a note: there seems to be far fewer constructors than methods. Eg time.Time

@andybons this issue is not even related to #40612 was it closed by mistake?

@pjebs it concerns the design of the left-hand nav and the presentation of its contents, so I merged it into that issue.
