I think that's a fine viewpoint, and one i take with many projects, and try to be clear upfront - IE "this is a thing i'm not going to spend a lot of energy on.

I think that's a fine viewpoint, and one i take with many projects, and try to be clear upfront - IE "this is a thing i'm not going to spend a lot of energy on. If you give me stuff that works well, i'll integrate it. If not, i won't". I would also agree you are going to get some amount of crap no matter what. But, i would say if you want this to be different, it's not entirely on other people. Even with the best of intent, you can't expect contributors or teams or processes to behave magically just because they should. You usually need to motivate/incentivize or train the behaviors you want, and iterate the processes and your approach until you are getting what you want.
