Totally agree, pointless to put in a perimeter path that still creates a feeling of distance.
When I view Silbury from the road, I get the feeling I want to be nearer.
People can still view from a distance if they prefer, to get the 'classic' view, but I think most would also love to get right up close to it, within touching distance.
I really think it would go a long way to making people feel they don't have to climb it.
