There is nothing wrong per-se, but this effort for aligning looks amusing ;-) Perhaps the next person who wants to mimick this pattern will order their constants in such a way that gives a shoter code to a symbol with a longer name?

Did the order and additional blank line matter here? I think you'd prefer to keep these two lines as before...
