There is no real opportunity to be had here.

The vocabularies that have seen adoption are the ones that use a small
number of terms to model a smallish subset of things in thee world, not
grand schemes that attempt to model the entire world. With any technology
that seeks to reshape the *World Wide* Web, large scale adoption should be a
key goal. I don't see how radically increasing the number of terms (and thus
increasing cognitive load for the user) works in favor of achieving this
goal.

If you want to model book chapters, chapter is modeled in plenty of other
vocabularies. You don't need SIOC for that.
