Backward compatibility. What else? A defconst prevent anyone from using anything else than "DEADLINE:" and "SCHEDULED:" (I cannot remember exactly, but even though you can still modify them, it breaks something elsewhere). With a defvar, we tolerate users on the dark side of the syntax. But really, no one should modify these keywords. Regards,
