Sierra can also be akin to saying "S" in a clear way, aka S for Spartan. It is very possible that they used that to keep the Covenant from knowing who or what it is. Although the trailer itself almost defeats that when he says, "we've got Spartans on the ground." But still, it is perfectly reasonable to suspect it to be a spartan, since there is no reason to send a bridge/crew security teams to Reach's surface.
There's not a single instance in the canon of the story when Sierra is used to describe a spartan BEFORE the second battle of Earth. Infact, Master chief has no problem announcing that he's a spartan while ON the same Forerunner ship as Truth.
There's hardly any reason to believe that Sierra is code for Spartan the majority of the time.
Has Echo ever been used to Identify Elites? It must be so, since E=Elites. Right?
Have you ever thought why they haven't referred any Spartan as a Sierra before the second battle of Earth? Because there's no games we have played in any other Human controlled territory besides Earth.
Chief didn't have a problem announcing himself as a Spartan because he was already entering Earth's atmosphere and the Covenant probably knew he was already in the same ship.
There's not a slight problem for Sierra-259 being a Spartan from Team Beta.
Except there were 150 candidates, and they only had room for 75, and only 33 survived after the augmentations.
That means we only have SPARTAN 001 to SPARTAN 150.
So that means TFoR facts hasn't been retconned before?
If not, explain Gray Team, Sam, Randal and Sheila + 30 Spartans at Reach (when counting the 5 new Spartans from First Strike)
And what makes you so sure there wasn't scanned possibly 320 children for possible induction before lowering the count to 150 candidates?
