--- Comment #7 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
It's completely logical.

  using const_int = const int;
  const int* p = new const_int();

Do you expect to never be able to delete this object, instead being forced to
leak it?

What about:

void f() { const int i = 0; }

Do you think this stack variable can't be destroyed, because it's const?

The const qualifier affects modification of the object, not its destruction.
Your mental model of C++ is simply not how the language works.
