yes that is intentionally a define and not an inline function.
See this patch here which changed that:
commit 2c321f3f70bc284510598f712b702ce8d60c4d14 Author: Suren Baghdasaryan surenb@google.com Date: Sun Apr 14 19:07:31 2024 -0700

Dang, yes, that was a regrettable change. But hardly the end of the world. I do think each such alteration should have included a comment to prevent people from going and cleaning them up.
Sorry I missed this discussion. Yes, the definition was intentional and I will add comments for all the cases which were changed this way. Thanks, Suren.
