Is CPC just for ISUP?

My issue is just to clarify the semantics. The draft as written
specifies as mutually exclusive alternatives a number of things that on
the surface don't appear to be mutually exclusive. Nor is it especially
clear about how these properties are to be determined.
I assume that somehow or other the meaning of these is specified in the
PSTN. But that isn't of much help to a SIP UA that is trying to
implement this.
If the semantics can be spelled out in a way that makes it clear how to
deal with the overlapping cases then so be it. (Does "police" trump
"cellular" or visa versa? Or is this only to be used in networks where
there can never be cellular police phones?)
