Thanks for your input! All the design proposal RFCs have shown they cause an issue with the Go Compatibility Promise whereby adding any enum value can cause a semver-MAJOR breaking change. This causes a greater rate of ecosystem churn which, in every design proposal so far, has been deemed a net negative outweighing the modelling benefits.
