I have advocated on a few occasions for constants to have something analogous to the "icon view" which would simply show the type and not the meaningless, perhaps confusing value.

Well, you can always type the value into the label for clarity :o:D

I am not aware of indicators that show the datatype. You are probably talking about terminals. I have posted countless typecast examples over the years and I always made a point mentuining the datatype in the label of the diagram constant, even when attaching code. Here documentation is super important. 🙂
Of course, I meant the terminal. Sorry for the confusion. Since the terminal is visible in the image and there's no coercion dot obviously the constant has the same data type.
But still I agree labelling it accordingly would help for clarity.
