But if we do say we are recognizing "sub-error-codes", it might be good to actually give them numbers somewhere in the response (maybe an error code header) rather than relying on string matching to determine the real error. String matching is fragile and has icky i18n implications. There is an effort underway around defining such "sub-error-codes" [1]. Those error codes would be surfaced in the REST API here [2].
