That depends on what "this problem" is -- lots of people here would say that the problem is websites that depend on unaudited, untested 3rd party resources. I can tell from your other comments that you think it's safe to trust 3rd party resources from places like Google. So there's a disagreement that is worth talking about explicitly.

If I was the mean person at IBM that buys startups and makes them "right", it's a lot more work to fix terrible added to terrible than plain terrible. And my last startup got bought by IBM, so I've experienced that pain personally.
