Thank you for the helpful answers, now at least I know what I am missing! What I actually wanted to do is unfortunately more complicated than that. I am using a plugin (Streams - https://saqimtiaz.github.io/sq-tw/streams.html) that uses a lot of transclusions, and I wanted to style the transcluded tiddlers based on a field (therefore the link to the docs). I did not want to use transclusion with templates because the transclusion happens inside the plugin I did not want to mess up with the plugin's code.
Thanks again for all the answers, if anybody has any other ideas, it would be great! :-) But it was already helpful to know what was wrong with my thinking!
