I think when you are talking about having to take down many thousands of trees, or for one person maybe only a handful, it is far faster to use milestone. It also kills the tree more quickly and one cannot wrap a stump of a 50' tree that hasn't been cut down. There really needs to be a movement to get milestone to as many people as possible, train them on the proper use and safety precautions, and at the least kill all those in falling distance of any power line.
