Will this supplant the previous quarto-oriented build mechanisms?

Hmm. Hadn't thought of that. Is it best to adjust the quarto templates to match the .tex ones?

That would be the nicest, but also technically hard. Maybe best to copy all the text from the qmd files into the latex template, fix it up and add a Makefile to build the tex from source.

Something like:

# Target PDF file
TARGET = paper.pdf

# Source .tex file
SOURCE = paper.tex

# Rule to compile the .tex file to PDF
$(TARGET): $(SOURCE)
	pdflatex $(SOURCE)
	bibtex $(basename $(SOURCE))
	pdflatex $(SOURCE)
	pdflatex $(SOURCE)

# Clean rule to remove auxiliary files
clean:
	rm -f *.aux *.log *.out *.toc *.bbl *.bcf *.blg *.run.xml $(TARGET)

Okay, I see! I might need to stop by your office hours for some help with this. I can make it clear to Kris and Carolina to prioritize style and language changes, and I can handle formatting as you mentioned above.
