Sorta. I mean you're right but at the same time if you're using const for an object or array then it doesn't really matter without `object.freeze()` because it's not immutable only the reference is and I don't think most JavaScript developers understand that (at least not most of the ones I've run into).

Note that Object.freeze only works for shallow objects
