Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

- Help with meow configuration

Microsoft Exchange mailbox
Here's my mu4e setup
-
emacs-groundup
7 - Meow: Meow is great. I switched from evil a few months ago and am pretty happy with it. I also dropped general.el for bind-key.el, which is included with use-package (which I see you are using anyway). You can look at my setup of meow here and a more generic setup of keybindings here. I haven't had any trouble with using this instead of general.

org very slow load with org-cite and a large bibtex library
One thought is to limit which parts of the org-cite libraries to load. I had similar issues with speed. You can look at my current setup in my dotfiles here. I just use oc and oc-csl, along with citar (no org-ref) and everything works pretty well.

tab-bar-mode: How to change tab bar appearence?
Another thing you might consider (this depends on how many tabs you usually keep open, etc.) is not displaying tabs in the tab-bar at all (setq tab-bar-show nil) and displaying them in the echo-area instead. I use a combination of https://github.com/fritzgrabo/tab-bar-echo-area and https://github.com/qaiviq/echo-bar.el to give a consistent but very unobtrusive presentation of the tabs in the echo bar on the bottom right. You can see that in this image -- and my config for it is here.

Has anyone ever written a research paper by only using org-mode?
Yes. It’s not a problem (it’s also easy to write papers in markdown using markdown mode). If you want to see some of the packages involved look at my setup-writing.el file in my config.

Finding the best style of literate emacs configuration
If you just want folding then you can use emacs' built-in outline mode. And there are very easy ways to jump around a "modular" or multi-file config as well. I use both of these tools in my own config. I also like that I can easily load just small parts of my config via command line args, and of course that I don't need to worry about bootstrapping org-mode to get things running.

Writing papers/thesis in org with a barebone config
You can take a look atmy setup and see if any of it looks helpful. The relevant modules for you will be:
-
How to C-x b but to related buffers only?
Yeah +1 for perspective.el. I use it with projectile to manage projects and have discrete buffers for different projects. You can look at my setup if it is helpful here.

Is emacs the answer?
I have used Org mode in tandem with LaTeX for displaying inline statistical equations when taking notes for data science topics and have found it works very well, although I am by no means a LaTeX expert. I have, however, read where Ph.D students have used Org mode to write their theses using LaTeX.

Org: Include but only headers?

Writing papers/thesis in org with a barebone config
Not barebones, but I would consider looking at scimax, which is an emacs configuration that likely is similar to your work flow. You can also look to PhD theses written in org-mode and shared on github, there are a few with sensible configurations you might want to just copy.
- Text snippets for use in multiple documents?
-
org-mode equivalent of asciidoc tags?
The include has the ability to specify lines. Here is an article I saved that goes into how this could be used for a thesis and reuse parts for journal articles. That sounds similar to your use case. https://github.com/dangom/org-thesis

Emacs org-mode examples and cookbook (2017)
As a sibling parent mentioned, you can tag an element by inserting it into it's own heading and adding the :ignore: tag.
I feel this functionality is overlooked, and it is in my opinion one of the most powerful features implemented in org, as it allows you to add "meta" groupings to your org document without any effect on the content.
Without the :ignore: tag, there is a strict semantic relation between org-mode document headings, as physically indicated by the * at the beginning of a line, and the corresponding hierarchical level of the heading's content.
With the :ignore: tag, however, you separate content from form. Headings with :ignore: work just as headings for your file.org document: you can search for headings, link to them, add IDs and properties and whatever else you can do with headings. But when you export your document, the heading no longer exists and thus has no impact on the hierarchical level of its content.
Why is this interesting? Well, because if content is separated from form, we can build things where the same content assume multiple forms depending on whatever context we define.
I used this in combination with other org-mode tags, "#+exclude_tags" and "#+include" directives to build my Ph.D. thesis with org mode and have my thesis chapters be exportable both as thesis chapters as well as standalone publications. Shameless plug: https://github.com/dangom/org-thesis
It should be straightforward to extend the idea to presentations and other formats as well.
