Agreed it could be improved fairly easily at this early stage, and even documenting 'standard recipes' would help. But I do think as a default, prefacing with a fixed string with fixed capitalisation is probably the wrong choice vs earlier systems which simply insert the reference number/letter itself and allow the user to word things correctly around that. Trying to make it do the right thing in context in a way that generalises across multiple languages is unnecessarily hard.
