Great. Thanks. That was r39273 and follow-ups. You rightly omitted the
parts where in my patch I had used incorrect variants of the words,
causing some test failures.

Later, in r39282 you made the tree conflict description tokens
semi-public:

[[[
A couple random things: constify some conflict stuff, and export
conflict token mappings.

* subversion/libsvn_wc/tree_conflicts.h:
  (svn_wc__operation_map, svn_wc__conflict_action_map,
      svn_wc__conflict_reason_map): exported for broader use

[...]
]]]

I think we should revert that part of that change, because these strings
(which are part of the WC metadata format) are logically unrelated to
any strings used for presenting the corresponding data to the user and
should not need to be known outside that file.

Would that be OK (patch attached) or did you have a different reason in
mind?
