Multiple Catalogue Merges: Same Publication

I'd like to several sections of the same publication to be data-driven.

Catalog Merge seems to be a good initial option but it's limited (1
catalogue merge per publication).

Has anyone overcome this limit, programmatically or otherwise? A macro
could likely pully in the data from multiple sources, but no, the merge
features allows formatting to be applied to the merge area & fields. I don't
see how a macro could replicate that.
