It can be tough sometimes to get a cache approved as a “Mystery”. I had 2 physical containers for “V Tree by the Sea” … both can hold objects and have a log book. But I could not get approval for the 1st one to be a “Traditional” which leads you to the 2nd as a “Mystery”. I had to make it one cache as a “Multi”. I’m not sure why … I’m not saying the approver was wrong … just stating that sometimes a “Multi” is the preferred “catch all” category, for reasons that are not 100% clear to me, which may be the case in your situation too. Now, if you are saying that you found a cache that is not a “Mystery” that has the cache coordinate as parking area or approach point, with the actual cache hiding spot stuck in the text as coordinates, without any magical special thing to do … I agree, that’s seems to be a no brainer as being done incorrectly by the placer of the cache.
Personally … half the fun of geocaching is reading the cache text and log entries, for me paperless would never do. … a classic example: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx?LUID=c339f05f-5473-4e7e-945b-7e7508c6e105
