I dont know about Öhlins factor in the Citroën problems, but will comment in general:
Öhlins and Öhlins are not the same thing.
A damper is as good as the effort that is put in it, and that is very budget driven.
I think Öhlins was last used in WRC in the Prodrive MINI, and that was after a sucsessfull change from BOS to Öhlins on the S14 that Grönholm competed with.
Both those dampers was competitive, though Prodrive under estimated the need for damper travel on the MINI - but that was not Öhlins.
Citröen has had a history making their own dampers (after the ex-tc I think?), but it has been a wish from several that they get outside assistanse.
But though the dampers seem to have some protection problems (bump stop and last high speed movement before bumpstop) its still difficult for me to understand how they could have ended up in this situation. I think there must be more to this story.https://www.facebook.com/noseendfirst?ref=hl#
