Just to clarify: I see that this is necessary when getting a citation object via org-element-context, but is it also necessary in an export context, where the whole buffer or region has already been parsed? I ask because in that kind of context, I think it is generally going to be more useful to deal with citation objects as a whole. I am not sure we will want to treat citation-references as individual objects which are themselves exported; instead, I think we will want to handle exporting the citation-references in a citation all at once.
