Any reason there is a duplicate `C_FILE` in `ls.c`?

The list directly corresponds to the 'enum filetype' some lines above:
enum filetype
{
unknown,
fifo,
chardev,
directory,
blockdev,
normal,
symbolic_link,
sock,
whiteout,
arg_directory
};
#define FILETYPE_INDICATORS \
{ \
C_ORPHAN, C_FIFO, C_CHR, C_DIR, C_BLK, C_FILE, \
C_LINK, C_SOCK, C_FILE, C_DIR \
}
This means that a whiteout file is shown like a 'normal' file.
Likewise for arg_directory as C_DIR.
The only usage is in function get_color_indicator:
static enum indicator_no filetype_indicator[] = FILETYPE_INDICATORS;
type = filetype_indicator[f->filetype];
Have a nice day,
