I think that's a fair enough point. But, maybe:
- Our many conferences serve the same sort of purpose for
iteration---albeit in a looser and more distributed way (which has
pros and cons). So, in the aggregate we are seeing the quality
control.
- A more hybrid approach like the VLDB stuff is a better sweet spot.
I find it a very difficult problem to really reason about in the large.
I.e., what is globally "best" seems pretty difficult to say, to me.
