I agree with you that their value is pretty much equal to Gabe's fun comments, or to Grace's later takes on the same objects, but to me they were still fun to search and find.

You're right on the second note: it's less frustrating to have a whole day or a couple of days to find these optional routes, but I still consider that the approach of GK3 is more believable.

If you look them in the first day, at each and every one of them in the proper order, near the end Gabriel starts to talk about Granny, his childhood and his experience with the clergy and the Church as an institution. Also, you can notice that he can't remember correctly certain stations, and he makes some comments about he not paying attention during catechism. Later, when you can visit the church with Grace, she also makes some comments about her childhood and - if looked in the proper order again - she thinks about Gabriel and Granny too.
