On the flip side, Wikipedia is available to a vast majority of the planet's population. We've traded optimum veracity for the privileged few, for 'good enough' for the masses.

I disagree that availability is the issue - you can download the primary sources from the Internet as PDF, even from China or 3rd world countries. It is that enough people don't care about "correctness" and take the best available hearsay as fact.
