The only drawback in terms of code robustness is that someone adding a

EventTriggerSupportsObjectType().
This doesn't seem like a good idea to me. If the function names give
the idea that you can decide whether new object types should support
event triggers or not, we could change them, or add better comments.
However, right now, you can't add a new object type and fail to update
these functions. With this change, that would become possible. And the
whole point of coding the functions in the way that they are was to
avoid that exact hazard.
I don't think just adding an entry to these functions is enough to make
event trigger support happen for an object type. There are other places
that need changing, and really you need to write a test to check it. So
I didn't think these functions provided any actual value. But I'm not
too obsessed about it if others feel differently.
