DOI encoded, URL no longer resolving?
I entered the following into Zotero's DOI field:
10.1002/(SICI)1099-1379(200003)21:2<185::AID-JOB34>3.0.CO;2-M
The resulting URL https://doi.org/10.1002/(SICI)1099-1379(200003)21:2<185::AID-JOB34>3.0.CO;2-M resolves cleanly when used in my browsers.
I then created a bibliography of this entry from Zotero in APA 7th style. Zotero emits:
Fisher, C. D. (2000). Mood and emotions while working: Missing pieces of job satisfaction? Journal of Organizational Behavior, 21(2), 185–202. https://doi.org/10.1002/(SICI)1099-1379(200003)21:2%253C185::AID-JOB34%253E3.0.CO;2-M
The resulting URL shows that Zotero encoded the angle brackets. The URL therefore no longer resolves ("DOI not found").
For me it looks as if the angle brackets were double-encoded as
%253C/%253E. Shouldn't it be just %3C/%3E?
I fail to understand what is happening here. Why is this? Is this a bug?

Unfortunately, I do not know to which URL the link you clicked leads to.
But I can say confidently that copy-and-pasting the URL that you mentioned into a web browser results in a "DOI Not Found".
If I manually remove the two superfluous instances of "25" then it resolves cleanly (see my double encoding remark in orginal post).
So it seems to me that the hyperlink text is wrong, while the generated actual link is correct.
