You obviously hang around in different subject areas than I do. We are
missing tens of thousands of articles completely, not even stubs. Our
coverage of architecture is scanty to say the least, just as one
example.
Not to say we shouldnt be improving things.

I don't believe that a drive for quality is incompatible with the
complementary goal of comprehensively covering all known specialist
topics. It's more a matter of focus, since our topic coverage is now
undeniably better than any general encyclopedia (and continuing to get
better rapidly), but our article quality is currently much more patchy.
