Given that the shared targets are footnotes or other not-humongous content that is not in the normal flow of the book, I wrote a script for my current project that clones the 10 target resources out so that there are 50 target resources to match the 50 departure points, and each target is given a backlink that corresponds to the departure point. Adds a bit of bloat to the footnote section, for sure, but handles the situation of the device/software having no back button.
