That seems like a narrow way to look at it. Of course I agree that the
topic of discussion is citations, but I don't see why the bigger picture of
what the various options provide should be ignored.
I'll be happy to see improved citation support in org regardless of the
implementation details. But I do think pandoc deserves a serious look, and
I don't think the non-citation related possibilities it opens up are
irrelevant.
