Some publishers are willing to accept Lyx instead of Latex (MIT press,
for instance).
If authors knew that they have to handle Latex in addition to Lyx it might
appear to some (many?) as too much to handle.

If I insert/list/bibliography I just get a link to the bibtex database,
and the actual citation entries are not part of the file
that I can send to a publisher or a colleague.

If journals want LaTeX, not LyX, then you have to export to LaTeX.
After all, Lyx's purpose was to hide the Latex engine, which scares
many novices.
Making Lyx journal-friendly will require, among other things,
simplifying the bibliography system,
so that the bibliography and the rest of the text do not have to be
in separate files.
I don't understand. They don't have to be in separate files. You can
just use the bibliography environment if you want.
There is a bug we have been meaning to fix, though, that will just
automatically include the necessary bibliography info in the exported
LaTeX file.
