Yeah it’s definitely one of the obvious things to do. I have not tried hard to do it because it’s just kind of logistically difficult. I’ll take this moment to think through why it feels hard. Some thoughts:
I don’t really have a list of the musically competent people (who aren’t in choir, who need to all sit together for logistical reasons)
There’s some Tetris-skill inherent in how the ground organizes, where people wanna sit with their friends in clumps, those clumps aren’t going to be known in advance, people are going to fill in and make it hard to get to pre-arranged seating areas, and it’s asking people to make a fairly serious sacrifice to sit somewhere else.
It requires coordinating a large-ish number of people. It’s way harder to get 20 people to do a thing (even a simple thing) than 1 person to do a thing.
Looking at that, some ideas do come to mind for how to deal with that, but, it’s a more expensive option than a lot of other options.
