LifetimeType is a plain enum, which aren't really their own types,
they are really just ints with fancy names. We could make them enum
class, which is a strong type. Then the compiler would know the switch
really covers all enum (class) variants. But then we have to provide
the right scope/type everywhere we use them in the code (which might
be a good idea, but is more typing).
