I designed the regex to specifically match the required items in five distinct groups: dates, product codes, IPv6 addresses, special items, and product IDs. Each part has precise patterns to ensure only the given targets are matched. For example, dates have one format for hyphen-separated, one for slashes, and another using dots. Product codes and IDs include alphanumeric and special characters in defined positions. The IPv6 addresses allow for proper hexadecimal groupings and shorthand (::). Special items and product IDs distinguish formatting variations (e.g., spaces around brackets and valid symbols). This specificity ensures no extra items are included or excluded erroneously.
