Sorry you just can't use them.

Nothing in the platform makes use of them.

They need to be set by the manufacturer (there is no way for the platform
to know what they are), and as of today they are just not consistently set
correctly across devices, and because nothing in the platform relies on them
it is easy for devices to have them set incorrectly.
