However, having an editor that will engage with your work and provide expert feedback will make your work better, as well as save overall time.
It's not quality versus quantity - it's paying for expert assistance. This isn't cheating, mind you - it's something every one of us will do, given the option. However, wealthy institutions can pay for it, and other institutions cannot - that leaves the academic to either pay out of their own pocket (say, if they have a partner who is in our industry and can afford to), or go without.

You mean something like peer review before submission, or you mean a formal editor? A formal editor will only add value to that document. You may communicate things better, but it won't improve what things you communicate.
