Coded Value Domain: Assign multiple codes to a single description

Question

Does anyone know of a more efficient way to set up a coded value domain where numerous code values can represent a single description? Here's a snippet to show what I have:

What I'd like to see is something along the lines of:

CodeDescription0-2Low Risk3-5Medium Risk6-8High Risk

or

CodeDescription0, 1, 2Low Risk3, 4, 5Medium Risk6, 7, 8High Risk

The number that will be used to determine risk level is calculated from four other numerical fields, and although I recognize I could set up the script to assign values of 0, 1, or 2 based on those number ranges, it would be nice to not require a workaround like that. I'd like to maintain the actual calculated values, because a High Risk with level 6 is still of lower importance than a High Risk of level 8.

Obviously, this is working as-is, but I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a situation like this where perhaps the code values can range from 0 to 100. Inputting a description for each one of those code values would be a tedious job, even using a script.

Thanks

True.  Just another way of looking at the question I suppose.

This stores the code in one field and the description in another, which is different from having a coded-value domain on an integer field. Not strictly wrong, but not as useful as a proper field in my experience.

So I'm thinking a calculation attribute rule would be possible in this scenario.  The arcade code block in building the attribute rule would be something like this:

var code = $feature.Code;
var description = When(
code == 0 || code == 1 || code == 2, "Low Risk",
code == 3 || code == 4 || code == 5, "Medium Risk",
code == 6 || code == 7 || code == 8, "High Risk",
"Other"
);
return description;

You can make it an immediate calculation rule so when an editor types in the value 1 for the code field, the attribute rule triggers and calculates the Description field to be "low risk".  Caveat here - I'm not an arcade guru so the script may need some tweaking.
