That works as designed. I do not understand what you would expect it to do.

immutable(Bla[]) _a; // this is an array that cannot be changed
immutable(Bla)[] a; // this is an array whose elements cannot be changed

a = _a; // fine. a is now a slice to _a's data

a.length = 5; // reallocate storage for a.
assert(_a.length == 0); // length of _a does not change as it is a different
variable
