Pete, thanks. This makes sense to me, and I'll work to absorb it in
greater detail.
Many of the "structures" in the RDA table parallel the structures we
have today in the MARC record, with the publisher field being an obvious
one. I suspect that we librarians have so thoroughly ingested the MARC
record that we have trouble seeing any other ordering of the data. We
have to get beyond that, but it'll take some mind expansion. That's what
you are providing.
