To be honest, I&#x27;ve been following the rule of using capital letters for things that should remain &#x27;constant&#x27;. If everyone working on the project knows that, it works like a charm, never had any issues with it. But it&#x27;s nice to have const now. So, I do see value in the const feature even if it doesn&#x27;t protect me against a commit by the devil himself who changes the content of const objects.<p>Long story short: If you want to be annoyed about this feature, then more power to you. I won&#x27;t be.
