As written above this couldn't possibly work in C -- const is block level,
right? Originally you wrote this with #ifdefs, which aren't blocks. This
isn't even close to apples-to-apples.
So are you suggesting that js grow a preprocessor? That block scoping
shouldn't *really* mean block scoping? Or that const shouldn't
*really*mean const? Best I can tell it could only be one of those
three -- and they
all sound bad to me.
