You can force things not to stack by giving them different inscriptions.
I no longer remember if there is a way to pick up an uninscribed object
without it merging with an inscribed object, but even then you could
drop all your id staves, pick up the new one and inscribe it, and then
pick them back up.

E.g. inscribe staves originally "unused" and let them stack, except for
one you inscribe "used" and use up that one first. It's a real pain, but
it is doable.
