Have to admit I tend to avoid paths that have been reconstructed, just awkward to use, stepping up on a series of blocks of stone. On Cadair, long time since I was there, seem to remember curling round on to the east end of the ridge for the ascent rather than going straight up, from either side. Actually the whole Cadair ridge is one of the best ridge walks in the country, east to west with the sea in front. Perhaps alternative ways up could be encouraged. If there is a large carpark it is inevitable that most people will use it and go up from there. In effect creating an excessive wear problem.
