I think others answered it well by saying if there is one specific goal you have and this weekend offered a chance to reach that goal in a fraction of the time, maybe it is worth it.
I can buy that. This is a very goal orientated game.

A point I neglected to mention was that, by getting your goals out of the way this weekend while it was quick and fairly painless, you free yourself up for loitering, grouping, exploring, etc without having to worry about how quickly whatever you're doing is getting you towards your goals.
Hmm, this I'm not sure on. Sounds good in theory, but chances are in mere moments ones 'goals' will be updated and the need for the most efficient xp and grindage would still be there.
I suspect it's just human nature.
If you had the choice of reaching your destination by walking one city block on a hard concrete sidewalk with only a parking lot to look at OR a 4 block walk on a soft dirt path through the woods with birdies singing and trees swaying, which would you pick?
I know that there are all sorts of different circumstances that go into a question like that posed above. Regardless my guess is that people will more often than not take the shortest route whether time is a factor or not.
Mondays stink, but they're the quickest way to the weekend.
Congrats on the horsey Inlee.
Edited cuz I REALLY messed up the quotes the first time around.
