Unlike M/M Romance, which usually has a tag like "Gay," "Gay & Lesbian" or "Gay Fiction" or "LGBT" or something, M/F romance will generally just have "Romance." But since M/M Romance ALSO often has "romance", I can't use that as a tag for sorting by genre.

Unless there's a way to find the ones tagged "romance" and then filter the ones with the various M/M sort of tags out from the ones without any such distinguishing tags.

I could always separate M/M Romance into it's own library and use a different template for it, but by that logic, I could side-step ALL of this by sorting these into different libraries, and then what would we do for fun?
Maybe this will help: only the FIRST match will be used. If there is an extra "romance" tag, then as long as you list it later on in switch() it will be ignored, since a previous tag has already been matched.

It follows a general concept of switch(pattern,value,else_if_pattern,value,else_if_pattern,value,else_value)

I have a rather large library.
Fair enough, I have "only" 796 books. For now.
And a very good memory.
