Yes, that is the only thing I am doing. I am trying to get org's idea of
semantic quoting to map to LaTeX's idea of semantic quoting. As a result I
also don't understand why anyone cares what the \enquote{whatever} looks
like in the TeX file. Personally I only care what it looks like in Org.

This is also why I think the macro solution is bad. Org has semantic
quotes. It's just not doing a good job of convincing my LaTeX stack that it
has semantic quotes.

The exported TeX source appears to be functionally equivalent to the
snippet you pasted, so the issue is probably in the TeX step.

thanks again,
