In working through marc tags and rda for bibframe vocab consideration, I built a crosswalk that constructed element names from the rda terms. Here's a fun one:
MARC code:
bf:250b
or
Marc Term:
bf:marcRemainderofEditionStatement
or
RDA Code
bf:rdaRule2.5.9
or
RDA Term
bf:rdaParallelStatementofResponsibilityRelatingtoaNamedRevisionofanEdition

Ummm; 130 and 240 are convenient short hand for "uniform title as main entry" and "uniform title after main entry for filing".
What <bf:term> has been created for these two elements? There seems to me to be a tension between being short enough for ease, or being long enough to be explicit. Some of the RDA 336 content terms and $e relationship terms are far too long. I hope that will not be true of Bibframe element names.
