If it's actually read-only, and doesn't have an mx_internal way to mess with
it, then it probably means that it's not really a variable, because it's
immutable. Think of it as a late-set constant. If they've written a bunch of
logic that depends on the immutability of a property and you mess with it,
things will almost certainly break.
