   reflect.StringHeader is unsafe
   ```
   type StringHeader struct {
   	Data uintptr
   	Len  int
   }
   ```
   Garbage Collector (GC) : Go's garbage collector automatically tracks all valid Pointers to ensure that the memory they point to is not reclaimed. This means that as long as there is a valid pointer to a memory region, that memory region will not be collected by the garbage collector.
   
   **_StringHeader_** which uses _**uintptr**_  is a typeless integer that can be used to hold pointer values, but it is not really a pointer type. Therefore, the garbage collector will not regard _**uintptr**_  as a valid pointer to track. Causes StringHeader to be affected.
