I am a little puzzled why a constant sequence of pairs is being stored as a mapping instead of a tuple (or list) of 2-tuples (which is compiled more efficiently). As near as I can tell, 'tests' and similar constructs later in the file are never used as mappings. Am I missing something or is this just the way Catalin wrote it?
This is just the way Catalin wrote it. If the style bothers you, you can always change it. I don't think it makes much of a difference either way.
(but if you really care about compilation efficiency in tests you are probably the victim of premature optimization)

Antoine.
