Default mutability like practically every large language? I’ll admit, both have their uses, but if you’re striving for less runtime errors, default immutability makes more sense.

These are not runtime errors. But regardless I rather like a runtime error instead of doing the wrong thing.

Why would you prefer a runtime error over just not making the mistake in the first place?

[rowanG077]

Because I don't like having bombs in my software waiting to explode when you touch it. That's essentially what mutable by default is.
