Is there a way to highlight a verse without tying it to a translation?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

If I highlight a verse (web, desktop, mobile) it is anchored to the translation I am in, so the anchor might say John 3:3 ESV.

I can manually add an anchor to John 3:3 then, and remove the one tied to the ESV.

But is there a way to create the highlight from the start without the translation being part of the anchor?

In the screenshot below I entered a single label in the ESV for verses 11 and 12. The NASB95…
