I was thinking more about other people's code. Mine doesn't use const at 
all.

So, even /more/ clutter?! I's also like to see a typedefed version of my 
example that is not harder to understand.

Yes, everybody. You have a dynamic tree data structure for example, 
using non-const references within its nodes to allow it to be updated.

How do you write a function that takes a reference to that tree, but is 
not allowed to update it?

This is what someone might expect of an immutable parameter.

This is not to say that I know how to achieve this; I don't (but I 
haven't researched it much either). The nearest I can do is pass a deep 
copy of such a tree, to protect the original, but that is hardly efficient.

I just see C's const as a waste of time. I'm starting to use readonly 
data in a few places without my languages, but where it's handled sensibly.

What I don't do is introduce such a polarising type attribute at every 
level of a data structure, one that poisons every other type it comes 
into contact with, such that it becomes challenging to do perfectly 
innocuous things.
