How will you deal with the overwhelming amount of obvious strategies littering your path?

Ran 3 2-player games. Trade Route can get to the point that it gives you at least a Province (or almost a full Colony if you play with it). There's the temptation to buy other cards instead when you've got the big money but, unless you're taking the Duke/Duchy strategy in a non-Colony game, that's probably not the wisest choice. This one's a bit of a pain to set up and count points but pretty fun. Next time we try this I might swap Scout in place of Gardens for one less box to open and I think Scout would balance the set by making Great Hall and Tribute a little more valuable for triggering big hands while taming the Trade Route rush down a little.
