some writers are decent enough at proofreading that when push comes to shove, a beta reader isn't absolutely required

I agree with that. Some might be more in need of one than others (as you said, if there are mistakes galore), but I don't see why it should be a rule.

Besides, there are crappy betas just like there are crappy writers, so having a beta is no guarantee of a well-edited fic.

Exactly! It's a complete toss up; just because you have a beta, doesn't mean you have a good one that's going to actually make the fic better.
