Is there any real reason to use "const"?

That's why I use 'Egyptian braces' with a 'cuddled else':

```D
     if (x == y) {
         doSomething();
     } else if (y == z) {
         doSomethingElse();
     } else {
         doYetAnotherThing();
     }
```

Not the prettiest, but compact and safe.
