I want control on the output document, and switching to org-mode will end up 
using latex
block all the time.  So I use latex for work.   

When I want to just write something, I use org-mode, then export to LaTeX and 
be done with it.

Do not use cdlatex-mode under org-mode, but use the special version 
org-cdlatex-mode.
