I have had my chance and I cannot decide, so I will now use 90023: Unknown 041002 1 90023U 04576A 04283.68769934 0.00000000 00000-0 00000-0 0 08 2 90023 5.2000 198.1864 0000100 0.0000 0.0000 1.00270000 01 This orbit is "crazy" in the sense that the inclination never was and never will be close to zero.
