overriding lang files in 1.5.8

[delia]

In 8.1 and 1.58 with the new lang defines, can I put in the define into the database and use that inside the lang file such
'TITLE' => SITE_TITLE, instead of 'TITLE' => 'Zen Cart' where SITE_TITLE is in the database?

Yes, you can.

Yes, you can.

Hmm. So yes it can be done as I had already figured out. A better way of phrasing this, can you foresee any issues long term doing it? The reason this is now a question is because of the issues for me that cropped up in 1.5.8.

The only long-term issue I could foresee is if, for whatever reason, the database no longer has the SITE_TITLE value. That will, for PHP 8.2+ (IIRC), result in a PHP error for that missing constant.

Only a template add on

Being captain obvious, an issue would exist if that constant is desired to be or become actually language dependent.
