Yeah, but it was also pretty separate from the main stories. If they're actually going to be connected more, it's definitely an overall detriment.

As per PMiSS:
>Encounterable youkai: Fairies and youkai living by the lake, the youkai of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
>Near the lake fairies and youkai often gather, and, especially in summer, youkai gather there in search of a watering hole.
>The lake is also famous for monstrously large fish (*9) that are caught on extremely rare occasions on nights of the new moon.
>There are many anglers that cast their lines here, dreaming of catching a whopper (*10).
It used to be way more populated in early canon, and villagers going there wasn't unusual, but in DDC Sakuya was surprised to see a mermaid in such a -dead lake" (and she lives near it, so she'd see it frequently), and in VFiS, Larva remarks on it being a "Lake of Death", and even fairies wouldn't want to live there, with the exception of those that hate the cold like Cirno. It just became so much more lifeless after the change for no actual benefit.
