Discriminants are limited to elementary types, so the issues don't come up.
(There are no controlled elementary types.) But it would be very odd to
limit constant components to elementary types; it would appear to users to
be a bug in the language.

So the existence of discriminants don't prove much about the feasibility of
constant record components.
