And, as you've realised, without an Enum pattern you have the option of
using string *values* — because it's the values you want to see in error
message output.

The *identity* of the values doesn't matter. Any string of the given
value will work fine.

So don't fool the reader into thinking you actually care about object
identity; don't use ‘is’ for comparing these values. Use ‘==’, since
that's all that matters for getting a value that will work fine.

You have provided no justification for using an identity test. It
confuses the matter by pretending you care about object identity, when
you *do not* as evidenced by all your arguments so far.

The equality operator ‘==’ is clearer for your purpose, and less
confusing.
