While trying out more about basic citations, with quotes to mark strings so I can see where whitespace matters, I found that when exporting to LaTeX some regular quote marks (") turn into fancy ones (“”) but others don't.
Let's say we have Basic.bib (now in testing/examples/, adjust path as needed) and this Org file:
# ----------
#+bibliography: Basic.bib
#+cite_export: basic
[cite: "prefix one" @friends "suffix one"]
[cite: "global"; "prefix one" @friends "suffix one"; "prefix two" @friends 'suffix two'; "global"].
# ----------
Export that to LaTeX and you'll see this (also attached):

The suffix quote marks don't turn fancy. Same if you change the citation processor to csl.
It's rare to have quotes in citations, but for complex ones with some commentary I could certainly imagine them, for example where you want to refer to a certain word or mention how an author translates it. In any case there's something unexpected going on here.
