Which does nothing to eliminate the problem of an error-riddled file, or a "new and improved" file. It would just piggyback on someone else's original work and create one more copy that I guess another person is supposed to proofread at some point, and start the process all over again.
This makes no sense whatsoever.

Iterative improvement is precisely how good ebooks get created. Some of my Dickens uploads have been revised a dozen times, largely as a result of people telling me about errors. I'm certainly not telling you what you are "supposed to do", but if you care about the fidelity of ebooks as much as you claim to, I find it both surprising and disappointing that you're apparently unwilling to do a stroke of work to actually improve them.
