I really like the premise that there's room to start fresh here. FWIW, in my formatting system, the logic is based on similar thinking. In terms of classifying records, there two levels:

refclass: structural, with values like part-inSerial, monograph, part-inMonograph

The core of the formatting is really based on this.

        reftype: more familiar genre-based classification, with a wrinkle

Reftypes are not necessarily singular ("journal article") but can rather be concatenated across levels. So you could have:

        article-academic journal
        review-magazine
        editorial-newspaper

I'm building a similar logic into a "mods strict" schema I'm working on.
