I think it's important to consider scale when discussing metadata vs raw content
Getting high precision is difficult when done on "all content", especially considering the multitude of languages and dialects in Europe. At a certain point, more data does not result in better output, sometimes it's actually detrimental
The patterns that arise from metadata are much more generalisable and there's less of it, so it's easier to search through
