I didn't explain myself well. *yawn* So not a morning person.
What my sleep-addled brain tried to get across is that, while you can just overwrite the existing dbstr strings for your customized spells, that causes a bit of a pain when merging your changes into future releases of dbstr_us.txt.
If you instead use, say, spellid+100000 for your customized spell's descnum stringids, it'll be much easier to merge your customizations in the future, as you won't have to overwrite anything already existing in dbstr_us.txt, you can just copy/paste your additions in at the end.
