I don't see how it'd be useful to abolish GAs. GAs, imo, point out some of
our better work, which still need polishing to become our BEST (FAs).
Personally, whenever I write an article, my aim is usually an article that
is well-written enough to be presentable as a GA. And quite on the contrary
to "after that, the article really doesn't go anywhere", because I can say
that, at least from the perspective of the tropical cyclones wikiproject
(WPTC), we try to further our GAs up to A-class and FAs. Maybe not so for
other projects, but GA definitely plays a role within WPTC.

Come to think of it, Good Articles as a separate distinctin is rather
irrelevant in the entire scheme of things. Sure, you identify an article
as
being "Good". But after that, the article really doesn't go anywhere. At
least featured articles are actually "featured."
Perhaps the solution, given its shortcomings, is to abolish "Good
Articles".
