Case contract

Input a chart light abbreviation such as "Fl(3)WR.10s15m20M". Return [class, groups, colours, period_s, height_m, range_nm]: class includes an "Al." prefix; groups is a list (composite "2+1" -> [2,1], default [1]); colours default "W"; missing numbers are None. Unparseable strings return None.

Why this case matters

Tide tables and passage plans turn published predictions into go/no-go decisions about depth, clearance and timing.

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.

light characteristic abbreviation "Al.Fl.WR.5s"	`["Fl", [1], "WR", 5.0, null, null]`	`["Al.Fl", [1], "WR", 5.0, null, null]`	Failed
