The site, unfortunately, suffers from a badly conceived management plan. Green metal fences and netting imprison the stones and prevent visitors from experiencing the site. Bulldozers were even brought in to move stones for the fences. A parking lot is badly positioned and interferes with the sanctity of the site. The state has changed zoning laws to allow development near the main alignments and tried to evict small farmers. A French preservation activist group, called Menhirs Libres, has been trying to rectify the mismanagement at the site. They successfully won a lawsuit against the development of a theme park, Menhirland, at the site.
Alignment is a design principle that really shows through on things such as DVDs or magazines that one would store on a shelf, especially in chronological order. It is important for these large collections to be coherent and flow with each other. The Lost box-set created quite a stir within the fan community when the Season 6 spine number did not align with that of the previous seasons. For hardcore collectors who pride themselves in the aesthetics of their collection, a misalignment like this can really be glaringly obvious.
