I actually thought Brett's rationale in the checkin comment was reasonable (if you get in the habit of putting constants on the left, then the classic "'=' instead of '=='" typo is a compiler error instead of a reassignment). Call it a +0 in favour of letting people put constants on the left in C code if they prefer it that way, so long as any given if/elif chain is consistent in the style it uses.
