Which is why a "time par" is valuable. "Fast" and "Slow" are relative terms. A time par sheet is not subjective. You are ether "on time" or you are not.
I've never been an ambassador, but I would think it would make their job easier. No need to be nasty, just informative.
It continues to evolve sadly. The norm has gone from 4 to 4.5. Simple to play ready golf but very few do. Instead drive to a ball with partner. Wait until hit and then go to next ball. Instead of drive to first and drop off on way to second. There is a reason golf speeds picked up dramatically with single riders.
