[ruby-core:70583] [Ruby trunk - Feature #11473] Immutable String literal in Ruby 3

Issue #11473 has been updated by Yusuke Endoh.


Please consider the difference of the development style: hobby development and enterprise development.

I'm on hobby development.  I mainly use Ruby to write a short program, including one-liner.  I don't use a framework like Rails.
In this style, `.dup`, command-line argument (including setting RUBYOPT), and magic comment are all big pain.

On the other hand, in general the setting is not a pain for the enterprise development like Rails.  Each user needs to think nothing if the framework does the setting instead of users.  Considering this use case, magic comment and command-line argument may not a reasonable mean even for enterprise style.  I guess it would be good if the "immutable by default" setting should be done via method call (e.g., `require "app.rb", string_immutable: true`) or global setting (e.g., `RubyVM::StringImmutable = true`), and so on.

So, please keep "mutable by default", and reconsider if the setting means (magic comment and command-line argument) are really suitable for the enterprise development style.
