Simple answer, Yes. They should try to close the gap, but not by rushing. Playing ready golf, being prepared to play when it's their turn, etc. If they are still two holes behind at the end and they have tried to close the gap and the groups behind them are not backed up, I don't have a problem.
Look, we can all point to exceptional instances where a gap will occur, but they are not frequent. All I am promoting is that people on the golf courses understand that their pace of play affects all those behind them and they consider their fellow golfers when they play.
