Do you have an example backing up your assertions?

In my experience, the worst text classification is usually fine. Labels are usually too inaccurate and subjective for "accuracy" to matter much.

Electronic medical records. Anything in healthcare/medical, financial services, legal. There's a long way from the "worst text classification" to "sufficient text classification" in most real world use cases. With a reasonable budget you can relabel data and work around subjectivity.
