Thank you for your suggestions. It's not a bug but it may be a missing feature of pandoc-crossref though I don't know if it's in the scope of pandoc-crossref. I believe the point of pandoc is freely converting formats, and writing output-specific code for simple things like "have two things side by side" defeats the purpose noticeably. For now, I think I think the conclusion is "no pandoc solution exists so far". I have opened a pandoc-crossref issue: https://github.com/lierdakil/pandoc-crossref/issues/306
Cheers
Emil J. Tywoniak

I'm not sure to understand exactly what you need, but, for LaTeX output, if you want to place two subfigures side by side, each one having its own caption, with a general caption below, you may be interested by the subcaption package (https://www.ctan.org/pkg/subcaption).
