-1 is arbitrary, any non-zero value would work. More below.

This is the code that deals with the enums. It's making the type a tri-state,
where the values of VALID_ROOTS and INVALID_ROOTS align with converting role.invalid
to a boolean (always '0' or '1') so that they can be directly compared as above.

Any value for ALL_ROOTS (other than '0' or '1' obviously) would work since the
above logic requires ALL_ROOTS to be explicitly checked first.
