In all fairness Googling, then adding the information is a lot of work.
It's a couple of minutes. And at the end of it you have a useful article instead of a hole in the ground.
Nocking out people on RC patrol for couple of minutes soon results in the loss of RC patrol as they are all of researching stuff.
We don't have to verify stuff while on RC patrol. If something looks ... odd, do you know what I do? Tag it {{cleanup-verify}} and let someone who isn't RC patrolling sort it out.
We should not be AfDing something if we don't have time to do research. Let someone else sort it out if you must.
That's reasonable enough. It's rare for me to do RC patrol, but I might learn something from doing it occasionally. On Wiktionary I tend to spend more time closing requests for deletion, some of which carry on for a long time. The oldest outstanding ones have been around for four months, and they tend to be the most difficult.
