The problem is also that the rate of, and ease of production of terrible content far outpaces good content. So it does matter that there’s loads of junk because finding something worthwhile gets hard very quickly.

There’s already regulation affecting SDLC practices in the financial industry (SSDF in the US, DORA in the EU). Definitely not a stretch for other (“important”) areas to start receiving such attention in the future.
