For new major release (13), right?

Yes 👍

Rule addition is basically always a breaking change in the eyes of Standard 👌

I strongly dislike this rule, as it removes my ability to signal to future readers of code that, while a variable is not mutated currently, mutation is perfectly acceptable.

For anyone new coming in, there was some discussion around that argument here: standard/standard#159 (comment)

I personally think that in practice that almost never happens, and that you can always use an eslint-disable comment to allow it in those rare cases, which also makes the future intent even more clear since there will be a comment next to it ☺️

Agree. Something I need, would have saved me from a huge in-production mistake.
