Who knows, the big problem with shot quality is that it gets highly subjective. It would introduce a much larger problem than the one you're trying to correct.
My feeling is that yes some shots are meaningless, but really, think about it, how many are actually meaningless? How many shots on goal a game are to get a line change? Generously 1 a game, on a sample of 60 to 70 shots.
