Hi,

Thanks for the comments.

I came across this comments in string_choices.h files, where 
str_read_write() helpers are present.

Using these helpers offers the following benefits: 

  1) Reducing the hardcoding of strings, which makes the code more 
elegant through these simple literal-meaning helpers. 

  2) Unifying the output, which prevents the same string from being 
printed in various forms, such as enable/disable, enabled/disabled, 
en/dis.
  3) Deduping by the linker, which results in a smaller binary file.

Kindly, I'm leaving the decision to maintainers.

Thanks,
Sundar
