Quoting Maria Oldal <old...@themorgan.org>:

RDA does not seem to allow relator terms to be used in authorized access points for works and expressions, e.g.:

7001 ǂi Sequel to (Work): ǂa Jones, Raymond F. ǂq (Raymond Fisher), ǂd 1915-1994, ǂe author. ǂt Son of the stars.

At least, none of the examples given include a relator term in an author/title access point, although RDA encourages the use of relator terms with names used as access points. Is there a reason for this?

As I see it, the terms in the 7XX access point are the name-title combination by which the work is specified: a formal citation form. If the personal name is not the (or the first) creator, it isn't used here -- a uniform title (AACR2 term! 730) is provided instead.

In some catalogues they can be a hyperlink. An embedded relator $e or $4 would compromise such a link.
