I'm aware of why the JSON unmarshal overwrites contents of the pointer, as
I followed the code. I'm also aware of how to pass the slice argument

unexpected. The code unmarshals arrays of objects with pointers fields. All
unmarshaled objects end up sharing the same pointer value, effectively
overwriting the contents of the pointer.
