For my use case, I find the native Org to Odt export has several limitations:
1. No support for bibtex
2. I end up using quite a bit of LaTeX-specific stuff for formatting tables and
graphics. All of that gets messed up when I do Org to Odt export.
I agree, a robust org to odt/docx export would be very helpful.
