I followed the description in this manual, chapter 2.1.1 SW_CONFIG. The
idea was that these macros to correspond to individual switches, to match
that table (describing switches position) with this code as the user in the
end sets those switches described in table at 2.1.1 w/o necessary going
deep into schematic (at least in the beginning when trying different
functionalities).

Do you think it would be better if we will have these macros named
SWCONFIGX, X in {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} ?

It will still be odd, AFAICT, as this way as we will map 0 to ON and 1 to
OFF... A bit counterintuitive.
