For me the telling line in that blog post is:

"Even if we don't get it right, someone eventually will, because it is
possible and because there is such a huge potential demand for it.  I
look forward to that day!"

That is pretty much what citizendium is relying on. That there is a
"huge potential
demand" for perfection instead of "just good enough". I don't see that
this is a gimme, but it could be true. I cast my lot with "just good
enough", so will have
to forego perfection.
