An aproposs quote from that article:

"...there are so many reasonable and free options [to obtain encyclopedic
information] that are good enough...

Of course, we would not want to call Wikipedia, "good enough".

The phrase "good enough" is generally used in parenting talk to describe an
upbringing which avoids disaster.
