Yeah I would be fine with almost all of the statistics missing. I'm just one datapoint and I might be a bad one. Most of my GPS use is in the planning phase. I could also imagine people wanting to share visualizations of their route without the times because they don't want people saying they are slow.
Now I do have a lot of files that include the time... but they are all saved as GDB files. Do you know an easy way for me to extract the GPX file with timing information from the GDB without Garmin MapSource (These are old and I no longer have MapSource installed on my computer.)
Yeah it is a bit odd to have it fail on lack of timestamps.
One workaround would be to add dummy timestamps. There seem to be a few options floating around, like https://github.com/mikaello/gpxfaketimer (never used, no idea how well it’ll work)

For the GDB files, maybe https://gdal.org/en/stable/ can help?
