I'm not disagreeing. Marking unmodifiable arrays as const is generally useful for readers. Decent compilers though can _mostly_ determine whether or not an array is used as const and whether the array can be placed in a readonly section and is not required to be in a writable one. But the object sizes deltas you show with an allmodconfig are misleading. At a minimum I think you should show the output sizes as allmodconfig.
