Yes. I think we should have a few more related threads, resulting from the current discussions. This one is a reference for issues, since it seems that some are not aware of them.
One thread would be for solution proposals. These are, however, currently discussed in various other threads, mainly
and
This would happen only in the climbing gardens. But that’s not such a bad thing, after all. The routes are, then, densely spaced and it would be even more useful to have them on a map, in order to identify the ones with appropriate difficulty grades, then when they are sparsely distributed.
In cases when they are too sparse, like some nice multi-pitch routes, it becomes really useful to have them on the map. The beginning is usually critical but also traverses along the route are useful to have, especially in the areas that are not well-marked. The preparation, including the topo study, is important but it is still useful to have some assistance for main and emergency exits, descent routes, etc. Many descent routes are also not mapped because they are not used as frequently or at the same spot to create a visible path.
