It's a losing battle tho.
Notables long ago decided to embrace the suck.
Sure, but that's the way it is in all aspects of life.
In this case it's the Squeeky Wheel syndrome.
Bakers, over time, have decided to make it a Notable when in doubt just to keep from being bitched at for excluding it.
My biggest gripe comes from the previous Baker Cabal that would always give their buddy Newsbaker 20 Notes per bread.
Those are the clickbait ones that just give a cap/headline/link.
Most of them are crap with poor sourcing.
But, other Anons see how successful that tactic is at racking up Notable-Yous and join in.
Hence, the Absolute State of QR Notables.
