Don't people hit provisional balls any more? If you pump 2 out, ok, drop lateral. It shouldn't take too long to hit another ball off the tee.
I'm not in favor of the divot rule or raking the traps either. Some things are just bad luck, like in life, and we just have to deal with them.
I would like to restrict cart usage, but I know that's not going to happen. IMHO, that is what really slows down play. I almost never see anyone take a couple of clubs and walk to their ball while their cartmate is hitting their shot. Half of the time, it looks like a Keystone Kops movie out there with all the carts buzzing around.
I guess that's where we differ.. I see bad luck as hitting a sprinkler head or an overhanging tree branch. Dealing with someone elses poor etiquete isn't what I'd deem "bad luck" at all.
