Can you please provide a pointer to the "social problem" explained by Akira Matsuda? The only reference I found in this issuue is to https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8976#note-30. I don't see any social problems mentioned in that comment. It mentions mainly performance, and code ugliness. For me, a "social problem" would be e.g. avoiding useless discussions and fights between programmers. ---------------------------------------- Feature #11473: Immutable String literal in Ruby 3 https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11473#change-54004 * Author: Koichi Sasada * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Yukihiro Matsumoto ---------------------------------------- Matz said "All String literals are immutable (frozen) on Ruby 3".
