[dxwg] Explain non-reuse of PAV (#1595)

nicholascar has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/dxwg:

== Explain non-reuse of PAV ==
DCAT3 implements properties such as [dcat:previousVersion](https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat-3/#Property:resource_previous_version) that are _Equivalent Properties_ to PAV properties, in this case [pav:previousVersion](https://pav-ontology.github.io/pav/#d4e459) but why not just reuse the PAV properties directly?

A fundamental part of Semantic Web work is ontology reuse.

Is this reimplementation of PAV elements PAV is not an official W3C ontology? If so, then DCAT should reimplement DCTERMS elements too.

I assume the reasoning for non-reuse has been discussed in the WG but the reason is not given in the document so please could it be, or be added here.
