John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-2576:
-------------------------------------
However it's also harmful because the constant name obscures the constant
value, which has been a source of bugs in PDFBox in cases where that value is
wrong. For heavily used constants, it obviously makes sense, but for cases such
as this one, where the only to usages are _on the same line_, the downside
outweighs the benefit:
{code}
privDict.put("BlueValues", getDelta(privateDict, "BlueValues", null));
{code}
We can trivially see that there are no typos.
