Improving metadata coverage is a different issue than changing business model. Objectively, one's easier to implement than the other.
It is indeed tricky getting ~5,000 publishers to provide optimal metadata, but it's a good thing to have an industry-standard platform to do it in.

Half of them don't even read the submission guidelines that clearly say not to put page numbers on the camera-ready paper; they're never going to understand complicated metadata commands...
