That's for the first case I pasted, where the sub-object isn't a const object,
but we called a const member function. It is allowed to const_cast and modify
the object, because the object isn't const.

I want an attribute to say "no, really, I promise not to const_cast".

Oh, like [[gnu::pure]]? https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/6MevY4aej
