RE: [sv-bc] enumerated variable used with an equality operator

That is not a question.

There is no end of different coding styles that are equivalent in some ways, but different in others.

For example, one could ask about the differences between if-else and ?:, or between continuous assignments and always_comb, or between a & b and a&& b.

One difference between equality and relational operators is that equality operations are defined even in cases where relational operations are not.
