This sounds like the kind of idea I would love in principle but never remember to keep track of in practice. Like most of my failed houserules.
We found it a lot easier to say "I hit AC 16 Blunt" and then compare against the target's Blunt AC than to do it as the rules suggested and be like I am using a blunt weapon and you are using a chain shirt, thus I get +2 more to hit you.
We used those rules for like 13 years.
