First, #define doesn't create a constant.  That's what EQU does.  #define
defines a in-line string substitution macro, which is very different from a
constant.

Second, you can't easily redefine string substitution macros defined with
#define.  You'd have to do a #undef followed by a new #define.

No.  CBLOCK only creates constants with incremental *values*.  You can
misuse this mechanism to create constants that happen to have addresses of
RAM locations, then use the constants as the names of variables, but that
would be very bad programming.

In fact that is the *only* way to do so in MPASM.
