So, one thing I've noticed a few people mention is that they don't want sliders to overwhelm the lawn in the Endless Zone like Minecarts...

Firstly, Minecarts were nerfed in the 1.7 update, similarly to how sandstorms were removed from PoD. Pre-1.7, you would have minecart spam in 90% of levels, and said minecart spam had more minecarts than they do now, where it only happens in around 50-60% of levels. You think it's bad now, I think BBB actually became easier with the Garg update.

Secondly, Sliders only prevent planting on one space, while with Minecarts, they would usually prevent planting on multiple spaces.

Thirdly, Sliders would likely be more common further right, whereas minecarts are usually found further left, closer to the house, where planting space is more of an issue.
