We'd deprecate arm:PaginationFoliation if created in BF
Justification: The Sample Data section in https://github.com/LD4P/arm/blob/master/modeling_recommendations/pagination_foliation.md provides numerous pagination and foliation examples that provide fuller details of the extent, which currently cannot be accommodated fully by bf:extent/Extent, bf:unit/Unit, bf:count. The pagination and foliation requires understanding the sequence of various counts of pages, foliation, etc., and while one option is to turn each count into a bf:Unit, there is currently no way to order the various bf:Units and unlikely that it would be sustainable to maintain these a separate resources.
If not using separate bf:Unit resources to capture information (and rather than introducing a new datatype property for pagination and foliation), creating :PaginationFoliation as a subclass of bf:Extent allows the property query path to remain the same as the more general bf:Extent pattern, while still saying this particular extent is speaking specifically to the pagination and foliation of a bibliographic resource.
