What is the technical downside to using "const", or is it just

If your local "writeable constant" is of type string, and strings are
longstrings, and the writeable const is assigned a value that is the
result of a string concatenation, then you'll have a memory leak.
Well, managed types are not very likely in code imported from a Pascal
compiler not knowing units...
