So if the Client sends a 4 page document and supplies "finishing" = 'fold-poster', the Printer might fold every Media Sheet, but if the Client instead supplies "finishing" = 'fold-half' the Printer may instead fold all 4 pages together?

So the issue here is that some kinds of folds can be applied per-sheet or per-set, but some can *only* be applied per set (fold-double-gate, fold-parallel), others can *only* be applied per sheet (fold-half-z, fold-poster), and the rest can be applied either way depending on the amount of folding done and output bin/tray.

Look at figure 1's fold images to get a visual sense of this - folds along both axis need to be applied per-sheet, while overlapping folds need to be applied per-set.  So this is definitely implementation/process-specific, but we want folding to only express the intent.
