As far as I understand the Toolchains document, Go projects made with Go 1.21 or later can demand a particular toolchain for compiling a module (through the go and toolchain directives). If you disable downloading toolchains as needed, the new behavior of the go and toolchain directives might break your workflow.
What prevents you from using the new toolchains mechanism?
