It's impossible to know the fabric there. So humans would just guess and often be wrong. That system needs an "unknown material" code.

Right, so the user would have to do further research like contacting their customer and ask.

Of course, an AI/ML system that could reliably classify a majority, and reliably classify the rest as "unknown", would be interesting. Not sure how close we are to that though.
