How to produce two glossaries from one dictionary or source file?

I printed list-b for debug and forgot to remove it. For the descriptions, without testing I think it’s possible as long as you have a list of description (same length), and then iterate over all items in the lists. Something like this essentially.

#let list-a = list-a.map(
  x => (
    key: x.key,
    long: x.long.first(),
    description: x.description.slice(1).zip(x.long.slice(1)).fold(x.description.at(0), (desc, d) => {
      desc + ". " + d.at(1) + ": " + d.at(0)
    }) 
  )
)

Make sure the list-b is updated to match the new structure, then

#let list-a = (
  (
    key: "Foo",
    long: ("Lorem", "Ipsum"),
    description: ([Comment A1], [Comment A2])
  ),
  (
    key: "Bar",
    long: ("Dolor",),
    description: ([Comment B],)
  ),
)
#let list-b = list-a.map(
  x => for (i, y) in x.long.enumerate() {((
    key: y,
    long: x.key,
    description: x.description.at(i)
  ),)}
).flatten()
