Agreed, in part- I gave it a miss last year as my sentiments echoed yours pretty much 100%.
This year I ignored the 9.30 start time on my ticket and turned up at 6.30.
Result? It was dog slow getting out of London, in fact the first 13 miles took over an hour, but after that it was the first one I have done with no stops- I did not unclip until Brighton.
Next year I will leave at 6 come what may and aim for 2.45
