We are putting in a form/genre subject heading & I'm noticing some
weird (to me) things appearing in it.
According to the catalogers here the subdivision "art and the war"
should be a $v. Why is this a form/genre when it's a book & it's
*about* the war?
It would make sense for individual works of art, but it makes no
sense to me for a book.
What is the rationale behind this? Has $v replaced $x in a
significant number of headings?
