What is a non-static constant?  What is the rationale for, say, an
automatic one?

In C or C++ you can easily cast it to non-const. It's more explicit in C++ because one would use a const_cast<> expression. But in C it's not so obvious.

Named and unnamed constants, literals, should properly be treated as a
separate storage class
