Not the most insightful comment as that's an argument that can be used both ways. And its not just about training endurance, a lot of people enjoy the challenge of trying a longer, harder link up for which a preset "route" is preferable.

To make the place either 'traverse only' or 'problem only' is silly and divisive - the place is clearly big enough to accommodate both, as well as a few random smaller holds to give options for making up your own problems.

I went along to multiple weekend workbees - including some of the shittiest ones in terms of the work required to build/excavate the place , as well as donating hundreds of bucks worth of holds, bolts, the
edgeboard and allan keys and am pretty pissed off that the character, history and intent of the venue was changed overnight on a whim.
