[O] Problem with references to babel source blocks (possible bug).

I wish to be able to reference (i. e cross-references, lists) both some
tables or figures AND the code producing the objects.

To this effect, I added (distinct) #+caption:s to the source blocks AND
to the results, adorned with (distinct) org-ref's labels. An example ( 
Min-Ref.org) is included in this Google Drive directory*: 
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1T6N_-WwphlnL2mB4f6BgX0u1K5mLnz4i?usp=sharing
.

The comparison of this source, the LaTeX code obtained by org-latex
export-to latex (Min-Ref.tex) and the resultant PDF (Min-Ref exported
by org-latex-export-to-pdf.pdf) show that the labels attributed to
source blocks are mislabeled as figures. Furthermore, while the org
source requests a list of figure, a list of table and a list of
listings (in that order), the list of figures appears *after* the list
of tables.

I am tempted to conclude that there is some confusion between figures
and listings. Further attempts tend to show that the problem may live n
the core org's code, rather than any specific exporter :

The ODT "native" exporter (org-odt-export-to-odt) is much less capable,
as shown in Min-Ref exported by org-odt-export-to-odt.odt.

Attempts to export via Pandoc to PDF (Min-Ref exported by org-pandoc-
export-to-latex-pdf.pdf), ODT (Min-Ref exported by org-pandoc-export-
to-odt.odt) and DOCX (Min-Ref.docx) show that these exporters may need
some specific configurations in order to be even vaguely usable.

Previous trials, using #+names: rather than org-ref's labels, gave
similar failures. If needed, I can reproduce these trials.

So I have a couple questions :

1) Is the confusion of source blocks and figures a bug, or do I miss a
subtle point ?

2) Is there some introductory material to the care and feeding of ox-
pandoc demonstrating the use of this exporter's options to enable the
addition of the needed features (figure inclusion, tables of tables /
figures / listings, etc...) ? The "manual" available as a README is way
too terse to be usable without diving in the source code and pandoc's
documentation.

Sincerely,

* Six attempts at posting those files attached to the present mail have
convinced me that the list manager rejects at least the messages
containing some attachments (docx ? dot ?) ; I'm a little bit fed up
with this...
