Those links are beautiful. It's nice knowing someone else out there has some sense. It makes me feel less alone.

But sadly the pedants won't let this go. The misuse of const is already documented as The Right Way, baked into libraries and live in production in millions of places. Sad but true.

I'd love to do some GitHub sleuthing and find the first few developers out there to publish a project that misused const in their code, so we could tar and feather them. Though obviously being some sort of fad or mass delusion, it wasn't entirely their fault.
