At this point the disagreement over a relatively minor terminology issue is so
lengthy that the whole documentation change is arguably more trouble than it's
worth. So again: anyone who wants to revert my recent doc changes to emacs-27 is
welcome to do so. Or, if you'd prefer to uniformly subsitute "literal object"
for "constant", please feel free to do that too. It's really not worth arguing
about, and I apologize for stirring up this hornet's nest.
