Identity safety — false-merge prevention
Some suffixes are cosmetic; some define the product. 5490-6000 (Oscar rope) must never merge with 5490-6000-SC (Oscar II strap) or -C98 (cushion) — no matter how similar the strings look. SKUs parse into base + structured suffix parts, and suffix semantics gate identity.
