  * Add new predicate `CompileTimeConstantExpr.getStringifiedValue` which attempts to compute the
    `String.valueOf` string rendering of a constant expression. This predicate is now used to 
-   compute the string value of an `AddExpr` that has the type `String`.
+   compute the string value of an `AddExpr` that has the type `String`. `getStringValue` now
+   once again only works for expressions of type `String`, and specifically does not work for
+   character literals.
