Looks good.

It would be possible to use group names in the patterns instead of numbered. May help with understandability of the long patterns.

Looks good. It would be possible to use [group names](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/21/docs/api/java.base/java/util/regex/Pattern.html#groupname) in the patterns instead of numbered. May help with understandability of the long patterns.
