It seems like it would make the code slightly easier to read the first 
way, but harder to write. Now we have to remember all these different 
Enum types. Since it makes coding more difficult, I am inclined to 
"vote" for the second way.

Maybe as a compromise, you could do it both ways so we can choose which 
way to code?
