Walter, you have side-stepped the problem in question by talking about a

It's the same issue. When you use a cast, you are subverting the type
system. That means you have to be sure you are doing it right. The
compiler cannot help you.
I disagree. There are two issues being discussed. One by Burton and another
by yourself. Burton is showing how that data declared as immutable can be
modified. You are talking about the dangers of using casts. NOT THE SAME
ISSUE.
It is THE VERY SAME ISSUE.
