At a top level, I was using org-bibtex-yank with an org buffer (and in my
ideal case with no bibtex buffers whatsoever) as the documentation for that
function only requires bibtex to be in the kill ring. However, yes,
org-bibtex-yank calls org-bibtex-read, and I was doing so (in the ideal
case) with a non-bibtex buffer.
