That is my understanding, just as it was mandated by AACR2. So far, so far as
I know, there has been no LCPS subverting that as the LCRI subverted AACR2.
If/when Bibframe has expression records, an expression record might contain
both. But we are still doing manifestation records.
You can refer to the alternate form in 530 (which has $u), in 776, and/or 856 1
(version of resource) $u. but in my view that does not replace the need for two
records due to AACR2's GMD or RDA's media terms, not to mention fixed fields.
Most of our clients prefer 530, although the PN e-book standard calls for 776.
