Hard disagree. I haven't found any resources online to support your claim. I found several that support mine. Also, contrast "perfectly well" with "well enough". I'm curious why you see "perfect" as being demoted to "acceptable" in this phrase? Source?

Because that's how English works? "Perfectly well" has never meant literally perfect.
