Or some other writer or expositor besides Paul, for that matter; New Testament or otherwise. If the Psalms were full of "stubble", don't you think someone would have pointed this out?

I would say that there is little doubt that Paul thought very highly of
all of the psalms. It is clear that different psalms reveal different things about God. That is because some are written more from the perspective of man in his fallen state looking for God's help (among other perspectives). (I can hear Lee complaining about those by mocking "His mercy endureth forever, and ever, and ever, and ever. . . ."
And the blatant fact is that his mercy absolutely
does endure forever, and ever, and ever. And we need to
hear it more. Not less.
