I like the idea, but the setup probably matters a lot. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error. I love details that only make sense once you've been there.

Great point, especially the part about most. A little friction removed goes a long way.

Great point, especially the part about speaking. For me it came down to the route.

I would not call it wrong, just incomplete. That is the kind of detail beginners miss.
