I’d say yes, there may be things such as
«In his mail to the mailing list, D’Arcus (2021; against Doe 2020) has had a couple of questions about citation syntax.»
Not quite pretty, but reasonable, isn’t it ?
Regarding the style vs minus question : in pandoc you can’t have a thing such as this syntax :
[cite/text:@key1;@key2]. So using symbols is the only possibility. Org is different in this regard. Possibly you could use a special style for that. But the symbol based syntax can give you a nice shorthand.

Betreff: question on suppress-author citation variant
Org-mode is primed to add citation support, with a syntax inspired in part by pandoc's.
But I'm now wondering about a design detail it shares with pandoc, and so I thought I'd ask this community before raising it there.
So this is what pandoc's `[-@key]` would look like:
> [cite:-@key]
If there are multiple items in the same citations, it could be this:
As in, suppress author on first item, but not second, as opposed to all items within the citation.
In retrospect, does this make sense?
The org syntax will also have an optional "style" section, which applies to the whole citation; so:
[cite/text:@key1;@key2]
... which leads me to wonder if "suppress author" is really just such a style.
