Having read WAY too many comments from jealous and bitter authors, I think this is a much better and healthier attitude for dealing with that disconnect between what one views as "good writing" and what one sees is making people into millionaires. (Albeit a lucky few.)

The conversation will ultimately boil down to "an entertaining read is more powerful than perfect prose/plotting/characterization" if people are honest.

And yes, it can be comforting to realize that popular authors aren't always much/any better than you (although I do think it's hard to judge the quality of one's own work).

I know I'm not the best writer out there personally, but I'm earning money from my work and I'm trying to do as best I can. It's really all I can do.
