Cons:
* a little less convenient: adding a global string requires modifying a separate file from the one where you actually want to use the string * strings can get "orphaned" (I'm planning on checking in CI) * some strings may never get used for any given ./python invocation (not that big a difference though)
The first two cons can probably be fixed by adding some indirection, with some markers at the place of use and a script that uses those to generate the C definitions. Although my gut feeling is that adding a the CI check you mention is good enough and adding the tooling for generating code isn’t worth the additional complexity.
