Well, we do have some things going for us that they might not, like a translation regime. But I wouldn't pretend to know half of the functionality that we can actually provide given that the papers are properly integrated into Wikidata.

Given that there are organisations already organised, funded and operating to preserve and promote open-access research, we might want to think about focusing on getting deep interoperability with them, rather than sucking all the content into Wikisource, where we can't provide half the functionality that they can.

This looks like a job for Wikisource. If nothing else, so long as we can verify their CC licensing is compatible, we can archive and preserve them in perpetuity on WS. Unfortunately I've scarcely contributed to WS personally. I've reached out to a WS admin that I know from Commons. When they reply I'll cc them on this thread.

Exactly. Sourcing as a whole across wikipedia already relies too heavily on primary sources. I regularly tag articles as such.
Well, fair enough then. Good luck for your crusade, and thanks for your interesting views about what constitutes primary, secondary and tertiary. I guess I now have an answer about how much sympathy my suggestion would bring.
