Now that I think about it more, when I've seen it happen before, it tends to be on projects that use dependabot / renovate. If any of those updates depend (directly or transitively) on a later version of Go, the go.mod would be bumped accordingly for them.

I have a vague feeling it was related to testcontainers or docker, and at the time that job's Go install was always at least 6 months behind. At least with recent Go, it'll switch to a later version that it downloads via the module proxy, that would have helped a lot back then :S
