    I find this answer revealing for why you should use const as much as possible :-) Similarly as you start by having systems locked down and open them up as needed, instead of adding security for the issues you can think of. Commented Nov 11 at 8:12
  • The basic understanding I am getting is that you write you code and get it to work, then you add in the conts declaration. The confusing part is how much refactoring you do to your code, are you trying to create pure functions (functions without side effects). Or, are you just doing stream of consciousness programming/debugging then tossing in const in an ad hoc manner? Commented Nov 19 at 15:23
