I believe this greatly overstates the matter.

I think const is a quite-useful concept to make code clearer and prevent
certain classes of programming mistakes, but in this case I don't agree.

Calling innerText has many side effects, so it's not necessarily a classic
example of a "const" operation. It can trigger a lot of work, including network
loading.
