I would agree with you but for one crucial thing: most professional historians are already badly overworked.

Dealing with them on Wikipedia is the worst, though. They expect to be listened to because of their credentials but in Wikipedia, no one is credentialed. Everyone has to cure sources. They hate that.

I think you don't understand their business model. The Internet has made protecting the job of historians very difficult. I asked "Why doesn't history have large classes like math?" "Best practices in history are small classes." They've got a scam going. For now.

Best practices in any teaching is almost always smaller classes. And if being amongst the lowest-paid faculty at a university is a scam, it’s a bad one.

Very Lukewarm and Uncontroversial Take: Most professional historians are graduate students, adjunct professors, or pre-tenure junior profs who barely have enough time and energy to produce the number and quality of research articles necessary to attain long-term job security.
