@daintycode these are the best variables. Just used to symbolize values, like in mathematics.

@inaba @kpenc not a fan of mutation either, but mostly there's some change to most of them. Even if it is only by an ui control to change it anytime.^^

As long as you value their values all is fine

my shower thought on this:

doesn't it cost more resources/ticks to have checks for the constancy, and therefore the accesses to variables, then having non-constant ones?
