I agree with every single word.
No software is developed in a vacuum, and in the current context the power of
Zotero is unparalleled. There is no shame in admitting that a dedicated suite
can do a better job in a niche area. Better embrace the situation and use
resources strategically.
If dropping bibliography altogether saves resources in code developing and
bug-tracking, go for it!
