That's unnecessarily perjorative.  I've seen a number of notes around me
that could be characterized that way, and I've entered a number myself.
I view it as a public shared todo list.  I've fixed some of them myself,
others (esp. oceanvortex) have fixed some, and some remain.   It's far
faster to drop a note than to do the work, and often it's simply a
matter of half an hour with bing and tiger or the massgis parcels layer
to resolve.

I consider this use case to be a successful example of notes.

That said, there is a lot of junk.  But I just close them if I can't
figure them out and if I'm fairly sure I wouldn't be able to if I showed
up.
