I agree with this. Either you allow it or you don't; I don't think the OTW has any more right to judge what is acceptable meta than they do what are acceptable fanworks of other types. There are plenty of terrible fics that amount to nothing more than "OMG SAM'S HAIR", but no one proposes kicking them off the archive. Nor should they be kicked off the archive. The AO3 has filter and search functions to find the 'good' fic, and that should apply to meta as well.
Personally, I support Meta on the AO3 as long as we get functioning work types, so this comment refers only to the OTW moderating the quality of meta.
