using 'change.me' placeholder in go.mod causes network connections to hostname 'change.me' about bud HOT 3 OPEN

Hmm, wouldn't example.com also be interpreted as domain name?

Yes, but example.com is always guaranteed to be an innocuous domain name (it's IANA reserved): https://example.com

from bud.

Potential workaround would be to interactively prompt the user for the package URI during create operation.

There's some prior discussion about this in: #240. The TL;DR was that:

• We originally prompted when outside of $GOPATH
• People got confused why you'd need to provide that during scaffolding

Curious how you ran into this in the first place? Did you run go mod tidy and there was a missing package, so it looked for change.me/some/package and that was confusing?

We could also explore intentionally giving an invalid module name. Maybe that would behave in a more obvious manner.
