Without such an example, your argument seems to be overly generic.

That's why I had problems to "explain" the reasons to you; because
it's so universal a property, so obvious (as I said), that I don't
know what else I could say.
Yes, that's been the clear for a while now. That's why, when you said
you could not say more, I was happy to leave it at that (my "ok").
You again strip the post where my try for an explanation follows:
What example could I give that explains that if you're looking for
specific dedicated semantical values it's easier to look them up
by [semantical] name than by a [ambiguous] number.
Are those semantical names so meaningless to you?
Let's take the 'bool' sample; do you find it more helpful to look
for numerical falues in the code than to look for standard literals
like 'true' and 'false'? (It's not much different concerning 'NULL'.)
(But okay, given your last response patterns you seem to not be
interested.)
