error with OSCOLA style: "et al"

Hi,
My zotero is set to the OSCOLA referencing style, however for documents with more than 3 authors the citation that it generates says "XYZ et al", but OSCOLA referencing requires that that this would be "XYZ and others" - how can I change this?
Thanks

Can you link to the passage or post a screenshot about that rule?

sure, it is on pg33 of the oscola referencing guide: https://www.law.ox.ac.uk/sites/default/files/migrated/oscola_4th_edn_hart_2012.pdf

The style should do that correctly and does for me. Which OSCOLA style exactly? Could you provide an example for a note that you're seeing with et al?
