The point for them is to clear as quick as possible so people who make lots of mistakes/can't learn quickly should avoid it.

The majority of statics though outside of hardcore level won't care about your logs as they just want to clear ultimately and aren't too bothered about how long it takes. They most likely won't be as efficient as a hardcore static but it's either clearing with that or going into PF on your own to clear in order to get your foot in the door with Week 1 people.
Mm.. I simply asked since when I did sP1-5 I did the first 3 through PF, no biggie, and the Static I joined after was from FC members and weren't really hardcore so thought it'd be interesting to see what the "norm" for joining statics with complete strangers might look like.
