Is there a scenario that breaks because of this? I think from below code looks like the intention of the code is to make elements array into node array?

That is generally the purpose of this function, yes. elements was not always a ReadonlyArray, but now that it is it makes sense to make a fresh copy. We should verify the performance/memory characteristics of this change, however.

Although, mutating the array this way does not actually change its "ReadonlyArray"-ness, just promotes it to a Node Array (which is also a ReadonlyArray).
