The problem with (5) is this: you use some library that exports an enumeration, and you want to use pickling. Now you depend on the way the library implemented - if it used the convenience API, you can't pickle. If it used the class API, you can.
A good reason to ditch the function-based syntax.
Why? Not everything is picklable. Oh well. -Barry
