it may not be the best shot, but like rattlesnake said "what about the people that shot them in the shoulder blade".
Saying that there are people out there who take worse shots than quartering-in is a pretty weak arguement. There are people out there who spotlight deer and shoot then with high powered rifles in the middle of the night. It doesn't mean that people who are only poaching during daylight hours are being any less unethical.
IMO there is no "gray" area when it comes to shot placement while bowhunting regardless of skill or equipment.
