Secondary unit extractor: attached hash unit is not re-spaced · case 05
The unit is rendered "#1B" while spaced input renders "# 1B", so equal units compare unequal.
Case contract
Input one uppercase-able street line. Split on whitespace. A final token "#ID" (with at least one character after #) becomes unit "# ID". Otherwise, if at least three tokens exist and the second-to-last token is a designator (APARTMENT/APT->APT, SUITE/STE->STE, UNIT, FLOOR/FL->FL, #), the last token is its identifier. Return [street, unit] with unit "" when none is found.
Why this case matters
Separating the secondary unit from the street line decides whether two deliveries go to the same building and which unit receives them.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
