But if you really have time to pick an immutability bit in Newspeak, we don't have to care anymore.
Hmm... the code below should even work with immutable strings. I *never* touch the string! I do not even manipulate the literal array via #at:put:...
I just become the pointer to an Array generated with {}, which would not be immutable...
So I wonder if the immutability solved the problem. (immutable literals do solve many other bugs when the object itself gets modified...).
I extrapolated a bit... In VW, this leads to an immutability error: ('abc' become: #(1 2 3)) at: 1 Nicolas
strange     'hello world' isString ifTrue: ['hello world' become: {0}].     'hello world' at: 1 put: ('hello world' at:1) + 1 .     ^'hello world'  at: 1.
