My main issue with Pages is that it doesn't allow plugins like Word does. I'm a heavy Zotero user so a lack of Zotero plugin means I can't use Pages for anything meaningful.

There is an Endnote plugin. Google tells me it is developed by Apple, so the plug-in interface isn’t published, and it also may be limited to that single use case, but that’s a (probably tiny) lead towards writing one.

I am aware of Endnote plugin but my entire library is on Zotero. I have close to 20K papers there as of today and it's constantly expanding, so I can't move to Endnote. Besides that I am a lifelong supporter of Zotero.

Let me rephrase that: Pages has a door that allows an EndNote plugin to do things inside Pages. That door may be locked and it may not lead to (all) the stuff you want, but if you’re looking for a door, I would start there. Maybe, it is open or can be pried open.
