I have done it my self, if that is accepted. It is exactly what you are saying. If you are driving a cart or not is not the main reason to if the ball is fast or not. 

When carts are restricted to cart paths only, the round can take longer.

You need to walk across to your ball, then wait for your caddy to bring the correct club that you asked for, not the club that they thought you would need.

When carts are only allowed on the cart paths, and your ball is on the other side of the fairway/rough, your club choice is simple. Take 3 clubs with you, the club you're going to use, the club you used, and the club you should have used.

Second worse thing ever to come out of Scotland ( Golf )

point of playing to get the fat cats some exercise ? ????  ????

Not a golfer so no real interest in fees, costs, caddies etc, but when I worked in Batam the guys would come across from Singapore Friday night on the ferry, play golf for two days, have a hotel for 3 nights and go out on the beer for 3 nights and go back Monday AM AND they sAID it was cheaper than just playing golf in Singapore. I can believe it.

Well 55555, observing it from the Singaporean point of view:

 

Sure !  A weekend having fun in Batam is far cheaper than in Singapore.

Especially the girls in the Nagoya Entertainment District, KTVs and discos ... ????

 

Golf is just a face saving excuse for the family.

Golf in Thailand is playing under hot and humid conditions, mostly. I can still walk 18 holes in Australia, but at my age in Thailand it's not on. I can walk 9 holes, for 18 I take a cart.

I take it the choice for the worst thing out of Scotland is either haggis or bagpipes.
