I'm sure many, if not most, sure. But they are essentially fancy parks and I don't think parks have to go. Green spaces for human activity/recreation are a necessary evil aren't they?

They aren't evil at all, green space is good. Golf Courses the way they have been created in most places are shitty, golf courses on the scottish highlands are great.
