I'm saying, if there's just as much shit, but less good stuff, then people are justified in saying the state of the industry is worse.

But that's. Not what's happening. It's the same ratio as it's always been.

The point of the nostalgia comment is that... People act like there's some kind of "golden days" where anime was entirely amazing and awesome when, no, it's always been the same ratio.

This. There is a LOT of older anime that was shit, the only difference was that we either didn't get it over here or no one watched it if we did.

I've seen plenty of anime from the 80s and 90s that was legitimately terrible. Garzey's Wing, anyone?

The thing is, those in other countries during that "Golden Age" only got to SEE the best shows/movies. Because that's what made it through the laborious send VHS tapes across the ocean and subbing on nth generation tapes stage.

Now with simulcasting, we see EVERYTHING. Including the crappy shows that got filtered out in earlier decades. So it's not that the industry overall has gotten worse. It's just that we get the duds along with the good shows/movies now.

But on the plus side, we also get the hidden gems that might have seemed to niche to bring over "back in the day"

That is very true. :)
