That's not the real reason for rvalue references. There are two primary
reasons for rvalue references: providing move semantics, and providing
forwarding semantics.
The ability to modify the original object with impunity is the
_mechanism_ behind the move semantics. Looking at this as 'mutable',
however is looking at how you do one thing with rvalue references,
rather than looking at what the rvalue reference itself really is.
This would also completely ignore the other major use of rvalue
references, which is forwarding. In this case, the ability to modify the
original item is entirely beside the point -- it's mostly about avoiding
providing lots of overloads of forwarding functions.
