Apparently my attempt to get your attention with the title worked but it's meaning and larger context in conjunction with the video was lost on you.
Lost on many of us who have read these posts for years. When you said "Way over used terms", I expected to see many hundreds of uses for the word "difficult" over the last year, but when one reads the posts, just a few dozen are actually used in describing a road and of those, the majority are generally specific as to what they are driving for comparison. But since you've only been a member for less than three months, I'll cut you some slack as you haven't been here long enough to make those kind of generalizations.
I can understand your confusion if you think of the title and what I was saying as only related to the posts here. I was making a point about the use of the terms in general..throughout society and how they relate to what we say here...and then how that information may or may not keep people from taking perfectly good and acceptable roads that some posters find difficult or dangerous or just too demanding to drive.
At it's base my post was simply about providing more information about how a person feels about driving and what they consider to be a good road or a bad road to help put questions and answers in a better context and thus more accurate and useful.
And as you say some do this already and it is those posts that are without doubt the most useful.
