That is the sense in which I used the word 'style'.

I also used 'style' in the sense of the relative order or form
(abbreviated or not) of how the fields from citation database entry
gets presented.

I also used 'style' in the sense of Chicago, APA etc.

When Richard uses 'formatting' he really means how pre and post notes
should be injected in to the inline expansion of a citation reference
(in the body text) so that a reader's experience is uneven due to
jarring parenthetical marks.

Even though we use terms differently, (I think) I have a feel for what
the 'big' discussion is about.

May be the citation spec, should come with a glossary of of terms that
defines the sense in which those need to be understood/interpreted :-P
