I've published in Nature, Nature Communications, Nature Materials, Scientific Reports, etc. also in physics. Perhaps my impression is wrong, but Scientific Reports does have editors in different subfields and I didn't find the refereeing level to be that different from a more specialized journal such as Physical Review Letters or Physical Review B. The main criteria is that the result simply has to be technically correct as compared to "impactful". I think that there's definitely a reason to have a peer reviewed place to publish articles about findings that are correct, but not as exciting as we might have hoped. I think of it as community service...
