This is me you are quoting, for the record.

Definitely! Whatever works for you. I prefer the reStructuredText
syntax for longer documents, so getting real citations working in
org-mode is not a real priority for me. That’s all.

the server that runs on port 50001 is undocumented, last I
checked. And there are no tools to connect to it. Frank Bennett put
together a hack of the jsbridge Firefox extension which works quite
well. [1] But that is python only, as far as I can tell.

I think that is a good summary of what needs to be done. (3) is what
zot4rst does not bother to do.
The task of weaving together the HTML output from citeproc and your
export document can be tricky.

Yeah, that makes sense. I think (3) is optional as well, depending on
what your workflow looks like, and what your needs are for doing final edits.
