Better a correct answer slowly than an incorrect answer quickly.
For the existing PSL, it is not just the accuracy of the document itself, but also the accuracy of the parsing process. Is there a well-trusted parser floating around?

This is different from the way that OD works now, but the questions are is it worse, and what will break if we do it. Let's consider some attributes, starting with a trivial initial set... Accuracy: How accurate is the data that gets retrieved? Reliability: How likely is it that a query will complete successfully? Latency: How long does it take for a query to complete?
