Mike - well, I will admit I am a little disappointed by some of your findings. 
And the need to address will be sometime after Monday, but there are some 
errors in the coding:

FTTN41 is definitely a TAF, which should be coded IDS|DDPLUS.

IUPT02 should be a BUFR, and thus HDS.  Or profiler . . . I will need to 
capture one.

I knew the Redbook was coded incorrectly - it actually should be NGRAPH, but am 
not surprised it is HDS.

GRIB2 should always be NGRID, but there are a few on NMC that get a feedtype of 
HDS . . . shouldn't but do.

To answer your question, we may need to do a thorough analysis in near 
real-time with data on Monday, and make adjustments.  Folks may see a hit on 
bandwidth usage, and it is unfortunate . . . but I completely agree with the 
philosophy of the data realignment, we may some pains for a short period.  
Sorry I don't have more, but I do think using the subset filters instead of ANY 
will help a little.
