Any assignment / compound-assignment whose target chain is ROOTED at a
constant — a const-flagged global (array consts, #run consts) or a
module value const (struct consts incl.) — diagnoses 'cannot assign
through constant X' at compile time. A struct const's field write used
to compile and bus-error at runtime (issue 0116); scalars misfired
silently. A deref along the chain (p.*) breaks the root — pointer
writes stay the documented escape until the const-ness steps; a local
shadowing the const name stays writable.
Also: typed struct constants ('W : Color : Color.{...}') register —
the shape list skipped struct_literal, leaving the typed form
unresolved while the untyped one worked.
Examples: 1162 (all rejection shapes incl. the 0116 crash repro),
0178 (typed struct const reads + copy independence).
