Upgrade StorageCSL question: repeating variables
E.g. in the APA style, in , there is:
<text macro="author"/>
<text macro="issued"/>
If I duplicate these lines as
<text macro="author"/>
<text macro="issued"/>
<text macro="author"/>
<text macro="issued"/>
the date appears twice, but IF THERE ARE no authors, the organisation only apears once. What is it within the CSL description that enables 'repetition'?
I am trying to create a style for a proposal, where we are limited on words (and words are counted by \S+, so e.g. [A/B/2018] is one word). I could use IEEE, but it's not very friendly, as the numbering does't give you a clue. So I'm trying to create a style that prefixes each entry in an APA bib with a tag, as follows:
[Author/Autor/2018] Author, A., Autor, B. (2018). .... APA continues....
So I inserted the additional <text macro="author"/>, <text macro="issued"/>, which works for authors. But - when there is no author, e.g. I expected
[Organisation/2018] Organisation (2018). .... APA continues....
but I get
[Organisation/2018] TITLE (2018). .... APA continues....
So somehow the authors-replacement field (i.e. organisation) is 'used up', and then CSL replaces it with the next best element (i.e. title).
Many thanks!

In the meantime I've worked around the issue by using the extra field. As it was a limited number of entries, this worked fine. If there's a CSL web meet sometime, I'd love to participate.
