Stylistic choices

I tend to prefer to use namespaces filled with constants, rather than using enums in most cases. For example using

namespace Element {
const uint8_t No_Element = 0;
const uint8_t Air = 1;
const uint8_t Water = 2;
const uint8_t Earth = 3;
const uint8_t Fire = 4;
};

instead of


enum Element {
No_Element, Air, Water, Earth, Fire
};

Is this bad practice?

With namespaces, I don't have to undefine shit. I can have a namespace of elements, and a namespace of something else with members that have the same name. For example:

namespace Element {
const uint8_t Fire = 4;
};
namespace Attack_Damage {
const double Fire = 9.0;
};

Or some shit like that.
