How is 

MVC MYFIELD,A_constant_that_always_contains_'XYZ'

superior to 

MVC MYFIELD,=C'XYZ'

What is wrong with literals, other than that they are always disparaged by
programming textbooks and pedants?

The point is to use "meaningful labels", so the reader
will not need to interrupt their study of the code.
