Doesn't fix the problem of references being used for politcal retaliation, rather than actual performance. Which what the large chunk of bad references are about. In-fact it increases it, because the employee can no longer sue for retaliation, so the manager can make up anything he wants. Managers using references to retaliate against employees is fairly common.

This is why people are scared to whistle-blow. And businesses who value integrity miss out on good employees.

Yeah, we try to compensate for that by increasing the data volume to balance out outlier feedback and identify whether something is a trend or not. But it's not easy.
