        <pre>It looks like BytecodeGenerator::emitReadOnlyExceptionIfNeeded() is the only one that uses Variable::isConst() in: `isStrictMode() || variable.isConst()`.
isConst is: `isReadOnly() &amp;&amp; m_isLexicallyScoped`.
All calls to emitReadOnlyExceptionIfNeeded are guarded by isReadOnly().

This means that the code for emitReadOnlyExceptionIfNeeded is equivalent to: `isReadOnly &amp;&amp; (isStrictMode || (isReadOnly &amp;&amp; m_isLexicallyScoped))`.

isReadOnly is only set by BytecodeGenerator::variable</pre>
