After considerable discussion over years it was decided that this would be very complicated to implement and that the effort wouldn't bring enough positive results to be worth it.

See proposed solution and discussion   

Proposed Solution

Encode which codes can not be of a particular type; this will likely be fewer checks, and it will also likely be an easier and more deterministic answer without ifs-thens-buts; it will be a slightly less tight check but with fewer false positives.

If we do this, should we do more?
