Also, in Perl 6, constants aren't going to be bare words, because unlike Perl 5, they're not going to be implemented as subroutines. So that's another "obvious" thing that actually isn't going to matter here.
A C<constant> in Perl 6 can be declared with or without a sigil. Whether they are implemented as subroutines or not doesn't change how they look in the code: they can indeed be bare words.
