I have org-footnote-section set to nil in my init.el.

If I export through the HTML or Tufte backends, my footnotes are not exported in a different section. However, with org-publish-project and with org-publish-project-alist having a value like -

(("project" :base-directory "/foo/bar/"
            :publishing-directory "/foo/bar/"
            :recursive t
            :publishing-function org-html-publish-to-tufte-html))

...a section called Footnotes is created.

I have also tried setting org-footnote-section to nil in a .dir-locals.el, in the Org file itself as #+OPTION: org-footnote-section:nil, and as a property in org-publish-project-alist (:org-footnote-section nil)

What if you use the default publishing-function?
`org-html-publish-to-tufte-html' is not a part of Org.

Please provide more details about how to reproduce the issue.
May you attach a small example file and details steps demonstrating the
issue? See https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

> ... #+OPTION: org-footnote-section:nil, and as a property in
> org-publish-project-alist (:org-footnote-section nil)

These two options will have no effect. org-footnote-section cannot be
set using OPTIONS and project alist. Just variable.

Ok. I see what happens now.

Org behaves as expected. Setting org-footnote-section to nil only makes
export ignore existing "Footnotes" heading, if it is present in Org.

You don't have any in your example file, so Org ignores nothing.

Then, ox-html specifically exports footnotes into a separate section at
the end of the html document by its design. See
`org-html-footnotes-section'.

Not a bug.
Canceled.
