Comment (by flixos90):

 I prefer more specific functions to access values from constants, like
 those @swissspidy mentioned above.

 This allows furthermore for specific filters, which are more flexible than
 a constant (unit tests!) and could be used as an alternative. I think it
 makes more sense to iterate over time to introduce more such functions in
 a consistent manner than a very general `wp_constant()`.
