I think it has become more than that - I think it has become a very popular
part of the distance riding sport, and that the sport overall has grown, so
you're not dealing with quite the same group of people as you were before.
At this point, I think the distinction has become an arbitrary and
unneccesary divider between people, and may even lead some people new to
this to make mistakes.

If you're not using LD's as a stepping stone to endurance, then you are
indeed talking about a different sport -- something other than endurance.
So why do you expect to get credit for endurance miles?
