Certainly if someone calls him/herself an editor or compiler but is actually an author or creator, that person is the creator of the work. For example, authors of bibliographies sometimes call themselves editors when they're actually the author/compiler/creator of the bibliography. An example is

Note, however, that this is an exception to RDA 6.27.1.3, Collaborative Works, and only applies to that instruction, which gives guidance for collaboratively produced motion pictures. This of course covers most of them, but a motion picture wholly created by one person, family, or corporate body

Because the rule of three from AACR2 is gone, it doesn't matter how many creators there are for a work. In RDA the authorized access point for a work is the combination of the first named or prominently named creator and the preferred title for the work. Hence: AACR2 245 00 $a Title Z / $c

We should distinguish between the *concept *of main entry, which denotes the idea of primary responsibility for a work and thus serves to link authors to their works (and which, of course, need not be called "main entry"), and the different way(s) in which the concept has been implemented and/or re

Point of order! "Main entry" was adopted by AACR2 - Eric Hunter argued against it at a JSC meeting in the 1970s in York and was timed out. It goes back to catalogue card days - when full bibliographic data was entered on the "main entry card" and the other cards relating to that item were listed
