At first I didn't agree with what you said about variables, but after thinking about it for while, I think I do agree. Perhaps in the case of variables, the analogy to variables in an equation is pretty helpful. I'm still somewhat torn though. Variables in equations typically don't change values, wheres the value stored in a variable can change. Then again, that is mutable state, which is typically an anti-pattern. So maybe you are right.
