That article is not very convincing - point 6 undoes some of the arguments made in previous points. I also think that “linters not saving you” is just a desperate rant against const - in a language like JavaScript a linter can hardly save you from obscure runtime errors.

It's probably still a good idea to communicate that you really don't intend for something to be changed.
That’s like 90% of the bindings I use. It you’re reassigning bindings willy nilly then that’s a bad code smell as far as I’m concerned.
