+1 it’s definitely worth giving it a try 🙂. We can use pomElements to do some fine-tuning of what shows up in the poms. I’d suspect that we really need just the dependencies, no need for plugins, properties and so on… right?

Then I’d expect that the poms of published artefacts would not contain any references or properties (which is ok, since you cannot use those when importing a pom) so yeah those poms you’ve mentioned should “go away”.
