There is an odd "type 2" M28 that appears to be an A lens in all respects, except lacking the "A" setting and connections which gives even more evidence of being made in a "transitional" period, so I would guess that your original "transitional" theory is likely the correct one. It would be interesting to know the serial number and see how far off it is from the earliest A lenses.
