I saw that, but see below
can describe an unlimited number  of  parti-
tions.  In  sector  0 there is room for the description of 4 partitions
(called ‘primary’). One of these may be an extended partition; this  is
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
'may be an extended partition' - does that mean it should be, or it could be?
IOW, would you do it that way?

I do not understand your question. Any single one of the basic four
partitions can be an extended partition. This may be partition one, two,
three, or four. Logical partitions are numbered 5 on up. The way these
partitions work there seems to be no reason you cannot have a disk with
four extended partitions other than "it doesn't make sense." One is quite
sufficient.
