Yet I still argue "immutable" means "its value never
changes, no matter what", and it will be incorrect to
use that term on something that can change.
How about "read-only", for example? I think in general
"read-only" means the user can read it but cannot write
to it, though it doesn't exclude the possibility that the
value changes.

I'd like to hear it for my information, and I would listen to what
others say.
I think Shiro's suggestion is a good one. David
