should be two words in pinyin, I feel

Dicts that indicate two words include NA, ABC, PLC and LA.

The most relevant rules I find in Yin Binyong's book are
"A two-syllable adjective followed by a two-syllable noun should always be written as two words." (p. 106)

... and,in relation to "noun + noun" combinations, similarly
"(bisyllabic + bisyllabic): nouns of this type are always written as two units, that is, with a space between the two noun components." (p.96)
Diff:
- 甲狀軟骨 甲状软骨 [[jia3zhuang4ruan3gu3]] /(anatomy) thyroid cartilage/
+ 甲狀軟骨 甲状软骨 [[jia3zhuang4 ruan3gu3]] /(anatomy) thyroid cartilage/
