Correct. Though considering that we're talking about *compile time* the 
compiler *could* treat consts (in {$J-} mode) as constants if pure 
functions are involved... Though it would need a bit more work as 
currently the compiler is "simply" piping the constant values of typed 
constants into the output assembly.
