A sufficient bad FOSS implementation can also prevent a better FOSS implementation from ever being built, e.g. Xpdf/Poppler.

  It didn't prevent PDF.js from being built (though maybe it's not "better") Though I haven't had problems with poppler, so I don't quite understand what is bad about it.

  For what it's worth, MuPDF is quite good.
