There are many arguments in favour of constants, but this one strikes me as particularly weak.

That's not exactly how I meant it. I was telling that while constant should be there it should not be used as "Use constants everywhere". I actually believe the main reason for constants should "Debugging".

I know how to use each of these things for debugging:

- print - the interactive interpreter - the Python debugger pdb - the logging module

I have no idea how you think we can use `constant` for debugging.
