That's correct, the whole purpose of the cleanup drive is to make sure that there's something scrape-able to begin with, i.e. to eliminate the cases where you just get nothing useful back from the CommonsMetadata extension. This sets the stage for potential further work along the lines of https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_data -- which is pretty meaty and complex work in its own right.
