You iterate over the distinct types, not the hashes themselves, right?
You may want to clarify that here.

This last part seems a premature optimization to me. Is there a
performance concern preventing us from using (4) only?

In any case, the approach and the code look sound to me, although I
think adding a hash of a type that we don't know how to calculate
deserves a warning at least.
