Of course it could be checked whether
a CSL style contains explicit instructions about how to format titles
and skip sentence-case conversion of input for those but this
probably would not
solve the problems of users who do not want the conversion at all.
Do you mean using title (original) case despite some style requites
sentence case for English entries? I believed that fields should be
surrounded with double braces {{...}} this case and the only issue is
difference of original capitalization and result of conversion to
sentence case and then back to title case.
It is not clear for me why `org-cite-csl-sentence-case-bibtex-titles' is
a part of Org, not of citeproc-el. The only thing that Org can do is to
pass it to citeproc-el. It is not configurable per .org file and likely
it should not be. From my point of view it might be more suitable per
.bib file. Anyway it is almost unrelated to Org.
citeproc-el doesn't have customizable user options by design because
it was conceived as a relatively low level
rendering library. Also, it's used by several user-facing packages by
now in addition to Org (org-ref, citar etc.) so
I think it would be both confusing and difficult to try to keep this
type of customizations in the library.
My expectation is that to get consistent results across applications,
they should share the same preference. However since your choice is
conscious, I do not insist.
