reflect.TypeOf is strictly a convenience anyway - you can
always write reflect.ValueOf(x).Type() instead.
So this suggestion is just equivalent to doing:
func reflect(x interface{}) reflect.Value {
return reflect.ValueOf(x)
}
(except you can't do that, because reflect is the name of the
package, which is an issue with your suggestion too).

What is this supposed to do? What does it do if the value
isn't an integer?
Are you thinking that it would be the same as fmt.Println("value:",
r.Interface().(int)) ?
