'const' should take both immutable and mutable. Can you show
your case with a short e
I have often come into difficulties where I wish to have one
routine that can be called with either immutable or (possibly)
mutable argument values. The argument(s) in question are in,
readonly, passed by value or passed by const reference. Anyway,
no one is trying to write to the items passed

For a non-string array, enum may give runtime allocations that
static immutable won't.

A really stupid question, I fear.
If I have some kind of declaration of some ‘variable’ whose value
is strictly known at compile time and I do one of the following
(rough syntax)
either
enum foo = bar;
or
const foo = bar;
or
immutable foo = bar;
then is there any downside to just us
