+It is a **compile-time error** if the constructor implicitly invoked by an enumerated enum value declaration is a factory constructor.
+
+_A redirecting factory constructor can redirect to a generative constructor of an `extension type`, which may in turn return one of the existing values of that `enum`. This must be an error, because the enumerated values of an `enum` declaration must be distinct._
 
 It's a **compile-time error** if the enum declaration contains a static or instance member declaration with the name `values`, or if the superclass or any superinterface of the enum declaration has an interface member named `values`. _A `values` static constant member will be provided for the class, this restriction ensures that there is no conflict with that declaration._
