That's something Calibre does for you. You can control whether Calibre does it using the Prefs Tweak authors_split_regex.

FanFicFare already does db.set_authors() instead of depending on db.set_metadata() because authors in a MetaInformation object get split. If you can give a sequence of steps that causes the author to be split from FFF directly (and not from manipulating in Calibre afterwards), I'll look into it.

You could get FFF to help you out by replacing ' and ' in author names with something else, like 'And' (without spaces). "0x0xLOVE and WARx0x0" to "0x0xLOVEAndWARx0x0" for example.
