A frequent leader pain point is participants who obviously don't read the entirety of the trip listing before signing up and especially before requesting leader permission.

Most leaders will put instructions on information they want for leader permission in the "Leader's Notes" section, but many participants don't see it because it ends up hidden under the "More+" collapse link. Some leaders even make a point in ALL CAPS to try to get participants to click "More+".

I believe that swapping these two sections and making "Leader's Notes" the headline that doesn't get hidden would improve this situation and make it more likely that a participant would immediately see words related to requesting permission and actually follow the instructions. It also doesn't seem a huge problem default hiding the meeting time and place because that information usually comes in the planning email anyway, and participants intuitively know they need to find that information.

Obviously, this could be a confusing change to people who are now used to the current format, so it's understandable if it would be more trouble than it's worth or create objections.
