About exporting

Hi

After some years of using orgmode, and exporting using its defaults, I 
would like to take a quality leap and find a way of exporting for life. 
My options: LaTeX, ODT, HTML.

LaTeX: I can see some masters here that make professional books, and I 
have some friends that publish scientific papers using LaTeX. But, it 
looks like a like a rabbit hole to me, since even the masters seem to 
have to modify the tex file directly (is this correct?), not being 
sufficient orgmode to culminate the work by itself. And to learn LaTeX 
seems a lifelong activity (almost like "learning" orgmode). BTW, when I 
export to LaTeX although it gets the job done, it sends a lot of error 
messages.

ODT: I take this one as a lower level solution than LaTeX, but it looks 
easier to tame, and it even allows to use templates,  for example to 
make reports in the workplace. Do you think it is worth focusing on ODT 
exporting? Could it be a definitive solution to publish papers and books 
directly from orgmode? ODT exporting sends some error message to me, but 
at least I understand it.

HTML: I have seen some themes 
<https://olmon.gitlab.io/org-themes/latexcss/latexcss.html> designed to 
export in LaTeX format using HTML. Here we would have the "definitive 
tool": The power of LaTeX in the versatility that could give the use of 
different themes for different purposes. But, do you think it could get, 
some day, the quality of a direct LaTeX export? No errors by my side 
when exporting to HTML.

How do you think I should spend some hundreds (or thousands) of hours to 
achieve maestry exporting my documents?

Best regards.
