This is a very interesting use case I hadn't considered. I think seeding and getting a working database of these types of attributes would be an incredibly large task, but I definitely see the value in being as specific as possible here. This may be a good opportunity for some user education on how to document their belongings, what types of attributes to note, etc. I'll keep thinking on this, thanks for your feedback.
this can be something where SaaS model works in your favor. Allow people to manually input qualities for an item, and then when someone else inputs the same product code it suggests those qualities to them
this way you can build a community consensus on top of whatever youre able to data-mine
