I defy you to make it to Satan without cheating or having anyone in your group that has cheated. Thats sorta my point. That area along with a few others forces you to rely on a group rather than an individual. Try to even organize a Hell trip when no one knows the bee-line path. I tried, I got told they'd rather wait til a qualified leader was around.

Honestly, its just lame. I don't personally care a lot, but it sticks in my craw. Thats why I like a lot of other areas better, like Kteng's. Solo exploring areas I'm cool with, since then its just a matter of effort. I think large large group areas however, don't pan out like they should due to the whole unfortunate human factor.
