Meta SE seems to attract a much higher percentage of low quality, off-topic and spam questions than any other SE/SO site (Meta or Main) that I frequent.

To help keep quality on Meta SE higher would it be viable for there to be a minimum reputation set to post here direct e.g. 1K on at least one Main site?

And then to require that all other questions arrive via migration from a per-site Meta?

There seem be some Q&As around like Which meta am I supposed to post on? that suggest discussing/vetting ideas and issues on per-site Metas is sometimes/often preferable to posting here first.

However, I was not aware that Meta SE deliberately had its reputation to post lower than all other Meta sites in order to attract and efficiently process. Consequently, for more than three years I have not held the view that I espoused above.
