Yes, and you can also query larger ranges, like
(collect 'year '+Agenda (2019 32) (2019 40))
giving all days in weeks 32 through 40.

'+Aux' combines any number of relations into an index (they must make sense,
i.e. the resulting combined index key must be monotonuous).

Basically,
(rel year (+Aux +Ref +Number) (month week))
should be ok, as the week will not decrease with the month. However you cannot
query then for just year plus week any longer, so it is probably not useful
here.

You could invent more complicated models, with redundancies like
(rel month (+Ref +Bag)
((+Number)) # Year
((+Number)) ) # Month
But I would not du that, as it complicates everything else. Normal combined
'select's should be fine.

Yes, e.g.
(by '((This) (: key2)) sort
(collect ...) )
or
(by '((This) (cons (: key2) (: key3) (: key4)) sort
(collect ...) )
