Precis: experts are not a panacea.
Mmmm, Larry of course does have a valid point in there, which is that
edit warring correlates with a lower quality of article. It looks like

Bingo! No serious edit wars. Sadly, as this case apparently indicates,
the syllogism that this will get you a higher quality of article isn't
valid. Guess what - sometimes you have to put up with the pesky
business of people needing to argue the matter out on talk pages.
