You are correct. The export hook that Carsten provided deletes items in
a temporary buffer, not in your org files. In fact, you can use the
export hooks to do almost anything to this temporary buffers before they
are exported; your original org files will not be touched.

Yes, that would be the easiest solution, requiring no additional
