Your own reasons probably coincide with the reasons of most here on the
list. That is, since the valuses are really only labels for integer
data in the database, changing those values compromises any workflow
that is dependent on an actuall value ('Status' = "Pending").

Subject: Why not to change Status values?
I have a few "important" users who are suggesting that my organization
should change our status values. Does anyone know of some compelling
documentation that say why not to do this? I have many reasons of my
own such as the workflow, records, and updating issues this would cause,
but I was looking for something "official" if it exists.
Thanks
Kyle
