Sure. However, the discussed problem should be supported by Org core one
way or another.

Consider a third-party processor that introduces citet* style.
Then, some user happens to encounter the discussed edge case with
*bold [cite:citet*:@key}

If the third-party processor does not also have citet*/ variant, what
can the user do? Be stuck?

From Org's point of view, we listed 2 possible approaches:

1. Allow unicode ⋆ star in citation styles
2. Allow ordinary * star in citation styles + Make oc.el recognise
   style* as an alias to style*/ + make org-lint warn about the edge
   case.

Best,
Ihor
