   This is difficult to tell.  It at first glance looks like something a
   knowledgeble user might want to change and play around with.
   (Something that might even be a defcustom.)  But I will _keep_ this
   particular defconst to err on the conservative side in terms of making
   changes, especially since I am not really familiar with the file.
   This particular defconst definitely produces no compiler warnings.

   Maybe somebody who uses life.el could give a more definitive answer.
   (But maybe you use it.)

I forgot to say that we were talking about life-patterns.
