Makes sense.

Ugh yeah no that would be pretty terrible, how about something like:

enum subopt_zero_idx {
	SUBOPT_ZERO_A = 0,
	SUBOPT_ZERO_B,
	SUBOPT_ZERO_C,
};

enum subopt_one_idx {
	SUBOPT_ONE_A = 0,
	SUBOPT_ONE_B,
};

enum subopt_two_idx {
	SUBOPT_TWO_A = 0,
};

union subopt_idx {
	enum subopt_zero_idx subopt_zero;
	enum subopt_one_idx subopt_one;
	enum subopt_two_idx subopt_two;
};
