Two other thoughts I have had:

1. how did you feel about many of the Covid adjustments? no raking bunkers, flag sticks stay in hole etc. The flag stick thing was pretty much a non event for me, I didn't really miss not being able to remove it when putting. Does that speed up pace of play?
The bunker rule was a pain in the ass. After you hit your shot from the sand golfers were encouraged to use their feet or wedge to smooth over the area they hit from. Problem is most didn't and you had to move your ball to a smooth place to hit from.
