Why is it that the vast majority of residents applaud the Developer's genius but then complain about the gate system? Did the Developer have a senior moment here?

And what does it say about people's driving habits who crash through these gates? Are they distracted? inpatient?

The gates are separated as to resident/visitors because residents have gate passes and do not need attention while visitors need assistance and perhaps directions from gate keepers.

The gates are a welcoming sight, useful and adds to our security
Rubicon,
You are right. The gates are value-added. They are one of the many intangibles that have drawn us here and support property values that are based upon more than replacement cost and comps.
