IMO trails like Sideshow Bob have all the downside with very limited upside. It's not particularly fun, it's just a straight, fairly vanilla trail. Which is fine, usually it means you're out for a cruise, enjoying the views and some speed. Except you can't, because a tiny mistake on said fairly boring trail will send you to the hospital.
It's just like gap jumps. Why put the gap there? If you screw up, you're hurt, and your bike is broken. Make it a table top, you can still feel good about yourself if you clear it, but you don't die if you screw up.
