Make that

"""
While the main goal here is to abstract recurring patterns, and slightly
clean up the code base by not open coding the ternary operators, using
functions to access the strings also makes it easier to seek different
implementation options for potential space savings on string constants
in the future.
"""

space savings.

Rasmus, okay with that?

Jani.
