Research direction
Start by reproducing the warning in the linked Ruby TypeProf Playground using the provided Ruby and RBS snippets. Compare the TypeProf 0.15.0 output with the expected behavior for a constant declared in both sources, then identify the relevant TypeProf entry point. Done means the matching example no longer emits the spurious already-initialized-constant warning.
