adding routes in any way was and still is the weirdest decision ever made

Not at all... some maps are deserved to be played in their full version, like compound, alienbase, egyptbhop, winterclimb, wallblock, etc

Adding a route because it "deserves" to be played "in their full version" is not a valid argument imo. It doesn't really matter since the fastest record is the world record anyways on that map. And kz is about finishing the map as fast as possible, and just because someone finished the map too fast it "deserves" an alternative route? It is just silly to me.

just put yourself onto mappers shoes... imagine u made much effort to make a good map for the community, and just because a guy finds a shortcut in where almost no part of your map is able to be played, then it feels a bit shame about it.

i agree that fastest record must be the one and only record per map but i believe there are some cases in where is not bad to make exceptions adding other routes, like the ones i mentioned before.

I think there should only be 2 routes. One of them -md which forbids using the actual map destroyers, and the other route can be whatever players find. The way it is now gives too much room for confusion.

How do you distinguish a "skip" from "sc" or even "map destroyer sc" though?

It's useless to get into that discussion, everyone has a different definition for each term. Map destroyers however are much more easily decided. Either the administration would choose them or admins would do it together with the community.

On this demo I also cut "full" route and it is actually not allowed. This is so weird meh.
