Use for the flat 80% case of naming a work's author when no period, degree, confidence, or evidence needs recording.

Avoid when the authorship's role nuance, period, degree, or evidence must be first-class (promote to a gmeow:Contribution with gmeow:roleAuthor), and avoid it for editors, translators, or illustrators (use their own shortcut).

Assert from the work to the agent; promote to a gmeow:Contribution carrying gmeow:roleAuthor when metadata is needed. Typically attaches at the gmeow:Work tier.
