Easy answer: numbers.

A popular site in Cornwall for instance can have dozens of visitors in a day. If each leaves just one biodegradable bloom, with a week or so there would be a small compost heap on site.

But in reality, that's not very likely. And it's not an argument against offerings... it's an argument against volumes. You might as well say "we should have no people at an ancient site in case millions visit and erode it".
