Which error?

https://go.dev/play/p/CFWVXkFBOEX

Note that I added a name field to Line.

    Data:  {edge black}  --  {{edge black} {{ } 0 0 0} {{ } 0 0 0} diagonal}
Oops now Object.name is empty, which is my point.

    ./prog.go:20:29: cannot specify promoted field name and enclosing embedded field Object
Which is what you get if you don't add a direct "name" field to Line, because it's then completely unambiguous, the deeper "name"s are not promotable.
