Comment(by pramsey):

 So, in answer to your core question, does 'S' make sense anymore, it
 depends. It makes no sense in terms of saying what's inside a
 serialization. It makes sense in terms of flagging whether a geometry has
 a known srid or the unknown. But if we do that, it's double book-keeping,
 so I'd say "no", let's not reintroduce 'S'
