if "const" is NOT used, then TPoint is put into a register
if "const" is used, then TPoint is in mem, and the register is a

Is that right? (I know the doc says, no assumption, and can be ref or
value)
It does make sense.
"Not const" forces copying the data during the function all, "const"
uses the (supposedly) more efficient call by reference, while the
compiler prevents modifying the data.
(Beware that with objects the object reference is the "variable", and
not the object instance.)
