I would be happy to do it if I had enough time to review this code.

General suggestion will be to ask yourself, if value is going to be
changed during the runtime. In case the answer is no, there is no room
to additional logic which translate constant to different value which
will be other constant.

You should do it across all the patchset.

So, in this specific case, the proposed change is not enough, you are
not solving an issue, but hiding it.
