Ptypes are already shared.  Define once, use freely.  (Except that each method
has to define which properties it uses, and hence which ptypes.)

IMHO, a simplification step, whenever someone is going to address rfc8601bis,
would be to factor the results as well.  For example, every method carefully
specifies pass, fail, temperror and permerror to have the same, agreed
semantics.  The IANA page nicely allows to sort the table by code, a bemusing
experience.
