I really like the website's layout with the references displayed on the side. However, the PDF version doesn't have that feature. I found a GitHub repository that replicates that layout (https://github.com/fredguth/tufte-quarto?tab=readme-ov-file), and I'm hoping we can use it to keep the book's consistent look and feel.

Whenever I try to do a build I get the following error

Turns out this is to do with these types, basically if we include @ reference inside it it is breaking. Otherwise it renders OK.

Only work around this that I think actually gets to it are these two. Have to put the et al. explicitly rather than autogenerate a reference.
