I know how that is! Once you create a project, you can never really separate yourself from it.
Another idea I had was to mix in a bit of the sustain sample, with the idea that the combination of the two would be more convincing. Because I think the VSCO samples do work pretty well for creating the marcato articulations. You still mostly hear the SSO sound, but with the added breath/squeaks/buzz you get in a sharp attack. So possibly a similar approach could be used to create a staccato sound that matches the sustain sound, while also sounding like an instrument actually being played staccato.
But if you're willing to create proper samples, that's even better.
