Well okay this is definitely not a huge problem in destiny just something that would make doing some quests/bounties a lot quicker...so you can get faster rep or whatever reward you get from doing the the given quest or bounty. For instance doing the "The Taken War: Earth" quest that requires you to go to different locations on earth, with this new feature you can go to each location without the hassel of enemies and other things getting in your way or it can be used to go to a single location that might be across the cosmodrome and you don't want to ride your sparrow all the way across the map.
You might of found a place where you can get majors one time where they can be used for bounties, with this you can get there easily without walking or riding a sparrow.
Also BUNGIE you can use this for story missions to set up new transmat zones so guardians can efficiently travel to where there is a threat of some kind, so it's not just for effective travel
Not sure if this is my idea or not. In any case that it is not I definitely up vote this idea.
Also I'm not lazy, it's just this removes some of the hassel of moving from place to place
by feet or sparrow.
If I missed anything than feel free to tell me and if you agree with this idea you can up vote if
you wish to do so. :)
