How does this differ from one of the regular Nature styles? (don't worry about the Travis failure for now)

Right, I know what Scientific Reports is; I'm wondering how this is different from regular Nature style. The current CSL style for Scientific Reports just links to that and I think that's still the right approach given

Scientific Reports uses standard Nature referencing style.

If there are problems with the Nature style (which is totally possible) we can fix those there.

It doesn't ask for DOIs, no -- those are only for online only journals and datasets (note the Schott et al. example in both PDF and HTML instructions which has no DOI).

The square brackets are weird -- let me see if we can get some guidance from Springer Nature on that -- it's odd that journals with the same style in print would want something different for submission (Scientific Reports uses superscripts for references in print).

If you're submitting anyway, would you mind asking the managing editor about square brackets vs. superscript? If they're fine with superscript, we could leave this linked to Nature style; if they really want brackets, we need a separate style (i.e. yours) which is of course possible, but much less convenient.
