I get that using hard-coded constant is a bad idea, but using ASCII_A instead of 'A' is about as sensible as using SIXTY_FOUR instead of 64.

If A signifies something else, use that name; otherwise just use plain 'A': it already gives us as much information as needed, and has one less place where the programmer can screw up.
