Comment (by Kévin Le Gouguec):

 (Woops, looks like part of my OP got bitten off. Here it is, without the
 weird Unicode characters that presumably caused it to be truncated?)

 I know some programmers feel strongly against so-called "stringly-typed"
 APIs (e.g. they subvert type-checking; they require "parsing"), but I've
 seen [https://flak.tedunangst.com/post/string-interfaces reasonable cases]
 for them; FWIW I do not have a clear preference for or against them in
 this context (C type-checking is a bit of a joke so not much is lost;
 parsing can be fraught but libdebugger probably does not belong in a
 critical stack anyway).

 So I'll trust your judgment on this!

 Again, thanks for suggesting this.
