Well your "querulous and idiotic" is someone else's "attempt to ensure the source is reliable".
Well, not really. If they don't believe a given item can have reliable sources - the sort of rabid nutters who brag about deletion tallies on their user pages - then they just won't accept anything. I speak here from observation of the phenomenon.

There is a tremendous difference between "won't accept just anything" and "won't accept anything". Pulling up a few blogs doesn't mean you're done, and can say "I've got it sourced, these horrible people just won't accept it!"
