One problem is citation limits for many journals (which say that you can only cite 25 or 50 papers or whatever). As a computational biologist myself, I would prefer to cite every package that I use because I understand that the authors need this to get grants for further development, etc. But what happens when the more senior authors (who tend to be experimentalists) get the manuscript, they want to add a bunch of experimental citations and they see citations of computational methods as irrelevant and able to be sacrificed if there are too many citations.
