See my previous reply. It's not about (what you called)
constants and mutability. Misleading, and unclear, IMO.
> I didn't think of recommending ways of coping with it
I don't think that's needed. That is, I don't think
there's any such "coping".
What's needed is to make clear to users _what_ happens,
and its effects; that's all. With that info, they can
do whatever's appropriate for them in any given context.
But it's good to show an example of a gotcha, to help
make clear _what_ can happen and why.
