The thing about there being worse/more important things going on elsewhere if of course true and permanently pricks my conscience. I guess the only defence is that trying to make things better in a small way in your own back yard isn't actually wrong. Parochial but worthwhile.

As for the access/conservation issue, yes they are mutually exclusive and mutually destructive so letting either have full dominance makes no sense. So it has to be a compromise, depending on circumstances. Access where the damage is limited, restrictions where it's significant.

On that basis, 35,000 slightly tipsy revellers crowded into a small space in the dark is pretty insane. Fewer people, more supervision, less damage...
