On the one serious issue here (thanks Mark), why is it necessary to be 
able to "distinguish" purely from the rows rung?

A band that rings a 5-part extent of plain bob minor is free to claim it 
as plain bob, original with various calls, or a 5-lead method with no 
calls.

Similarly, a band that rings a 5040 of minor that has all 7 occurrences of 
rounds at the beginning is free to regard it as that, or alternatively as 
a 5034 that is missing 6 rows (and would therefore not be a true MEB).
