The file types in RDA 3.19.2 do not convey anything that is not already

300 (10 a) 1 online resource (v, 23 pages), 840 KB : (20 b) text file, PDF.
We would have in an RDA record:
300 $a1 PDF (v, 23 pages) :$c840 KB
We find this simpler and easier to understand.
Field 338 already has online resource, so we see no need to repeat
