Missed opportunity, big time (Destiny)

Bungie really missed a huge opportunity to gate off higher level patrol areas by putting ??? dudes as the sole barriers to entry. Back during beta I thought that's what was going on at the Grotto, but it turned out to be a red herring. I never encountered anything remotely similar off of Earth, either. This whole game could have felt much, much bigger if the mission order hadn't been "clear a world... move to next world" but had instead sent us throughout the solar system and then, at much higher level, given us a few "find X on some world" missions where you just *know* you have to get past those ??? dudes to find it.
