Lists and records are mutable. Numbers, strings, and most (all?) other AppleScript objects are not -- you must copy string contents to a new object if you wish to work with a substring, for example.

I do not follow this at all; a number or string is mutable.

set a to "A"
set a to a & "B"
a
--> "AB"

So string a is mutable; it was changed.
