There is a problem here: If we say it is "immutable content" people might think 
that passing mutable data makes it immutable. If we say it is "shallowly 
immutable content" people might think they cannot pass immutable data.

I am not so sure that the term "effectively immutable" is widely understood. 

Another alternative is to rephrase entirely and say something like

"A stable value is a holder of content that can be lazily computed at most once"
