While your point isn't exactly wrong I do think it's a bit of a oversimplification. Most editing of Wikipedia is done for personal reasons, including commercial (you get paid to write on Wikipedia) and with SO its most likely because information is cheap. In fact the points you raise is so trivial that we've had bots do it for us way before chatgpt. Compare this to artists, programmers and designers who only release things for free under strict circumstances (hobby, social gain, licensing requirements, etc.).
