very valid complaint Mike...

I also have a problem with scores which have been written in a way which makes it impossible to the perform the piece from the score (bad page turning points, size of score...etc...) As you know I used to memorise most of those "spidery" scores when I was at college, but now I do this less and less with new music I'm learning...

Although a different issue all together, I think it's important for mallet players to read and memorise challenging scores in performance. There will always be the odd passage which has to be executed with eyes at the keyboard...

Of course percussion scores in general have long suffered from inconsistancy in score "design" which compounds the problem when added to "bad" penmanship....

Encouragement seems the only solution I can think of...
