Question

Review this Go cache-population helper. `cache.Get` returns `(value, found bool)`; `db.Load` returns `(value, error)`.

What a strong answer looks like

Separate real bugs from style. Rank issues by severity, point at the root cause rather than the symptom, and suggest a concrete fix — specific and kind.
