It is of course possible to break these rules via promotion, e.g. having two dark square bishops is entirely possible.

But in those cases you're missing the pawn that was promoted, so the location of the second dark-square bishop would be encoded in a 6-bit pawn slot rather than a 5-bit or base-33 bishop slot.
