My understanding of the
OGL experience is quite the opposite. The market did NOT sort out of the crap on its own. During the 'Boom' people were snapping up products left, right and centre -- the worst of the worst got rejected but a lot of 'crap' got snapped up.
Then when the inevitable post-boom glut came, people started hoarding their precious gaming dollars and a lot of good product was left languishing on the shelves despite being superior to a lot of what was selling mere months before.
