Comparing to the speed of a direct boolean check is a great way to sensationalize really small numbers.

Nobody's real-world code is being slowed down by 500% because all real world code is doing much more than just checking errors. All I see from these results is a 15-16ns cost to using errors.Is versus an additional boolean.

Even the examples ("GetValue") hint at an extremely common use case: reads from a data store. A case where single-digit milliseconds is considered "all good performance-wise" for the most common SQL databases, clocking in at 100000x the time scale of errors.Is.
