Most players have no argument with the handicap system and would like it to work.

The biggest negative is how incomplete and underreported are. Not every score is reported (both home course and away play).

When 10-20 scores are in, the handicap system numbers are not going to change too much so there is no incentive to keep it up to date.

Golf courses with 'competitive leagues' handicap (separate from USGA) are often lower than the player's course handicap.

Since I don't play for money or in tournaments, I went with "slow play". On a similar note, I can't stand the people who like to combine hobbies. If you didn't hit it into the creek, you don't need to be fishing for golf balls. Even if you did, just get yours and move on.
