Do users of immutable systems (i.e Nix or Guix) upgrade more or less often than other platforms? There's less pressure to upgrade (unlike a rolling release distro) but in principle upgrading is easier.

I'm increasingly doubtful that commit messages should be entirely immutable. I sometimes find myself editing or commenting on merged pull requests, to help future readers. Phabricator appended a URL to commit messages, which helped. In principle PR merging could do the same thing.

I feel like increasing visibility of a function/type should require more verbosity. I don't know of any PL that follows this design principle for >2 levels though. Ordered by verbosity: public, private, protected , pub, pub(crate) Has any PL solved this?
