Rick,
I just checked, and 55 of the 96 classifiers are P-s noun, and they make up 1887 of the 4067 words. So there could be a default abbreviation of P-s noun, since it is by far the most common of all.
Other related facts that I find interesting:
P-s adjective is second-most common, with 840 words, shared among 14 classifiers, significantly less than half of P-s noun words. In addition, eleven classifiers have unique BAS/POS combinations, and three combinations have only two classifiers each. That leaves only two combinations, together containing 388 words and 10 classifiers.
