The spin axis isn't a valuable reference since it depends on your frame of reference, which is a concept that gets rather ambiguous as you get close to a black hole anyway.

Plus you can just "rotate" a black hole to get it to have the same spin axis as another black hole. You can't "rotate" or "translate" a black hole in space to make the other three numbers change. Those require ingesting matter or emitting hawking radiation and that is the only thing that changes those properties.
