[RDA-L] Bibliography and index

[J. McRee Elrod]

RDA 7.16.1.1 (earlier draft) shows the examples:

Includes index. 
Bibliography: pages 859-910.

There is no indication of wording to use for footnotes, still "Includes
bibliographic references"?

Will most of us be willing to give up the handy:
 
504  $aIncludes bibliograhic references (p. 859-910) and index.?
  
But isn't that an LC practice as opposed to AACR2?  Will they continue
that practice?

Doesn't spelling out pages here depart from practice for citations in the 
scholarly community?

This would presumably return "Includes index" to 500?
