I've been to a race where they had staggered start times, I can't remember where it was though. I don't recall it being controversial. But I agree with the others, the mass start and mixing it up with the pros is a big draw for a lot of gravel peeps.

Ha, I actually found myself near the front of a local gravel race a few years ago- CIRREM. I was fiddling with stuff on my bike for a few minutes, looked up, and saw everyone not already lined up had pretty much positioned themselves behind me. I was like 'nope, not today' and moved back 10 more rows.
Yeah, having some known people race in what you are racing in is pretty cool, for sure.
