"Find Ancestors" link
I love this link that is found at the bottom of the Settings page and the bottom of the Get involved page. I would love to see it at the bottom of the home page as well. The New Ancestor Discover Pages are the best thing that has happened to connecting our hearts to our ancestors. I'd love it to be more accessible. Thank you for all you do to hasten the work.

I suppose you're talking about this page: https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/
The top part of that is just a dumbed-down version of Find, which is already in the main top menu twice: Family Tree - Find, and Search - Family Tree.
The second part is a surname directory for the fluffy versions of Family Tree profiles called Discovery pages.
The next part is a link to Memories, which is a top-level menu item on all main FS pages.
Then there's a link to Search - Records, which is also in the top menu.
In other words, the only thing on that page that isn't redundant is the fluff directory. As you can doubtless tell, I disagree quite strongly with your assessment of Discovery pages. I avoid them because they contain uneditable junk (such as name origins, which are inevitably either empty or wrong), they present only a single spouse, usually the wrong one, and they serve no useful purpose that I can figure out.
