`sizeof` is actually a compile-time thing, so at worst, if no
optimisation is made, the runtime result is a division of two
literals, eg. `for (i = 0; i < 64/8; i++)` (which I doubt any
compiler would leave as is anyway)

So, +1 on using ARRAY_SIZE, -1 on creating a new variable (which
is not even `const` btw)
