That is how the London Pass convinces people it is such a GREAT deal -- it isn't.
It <i>could</i> be IF one could get to all those sites in the allotted time. But IRL you are lucky to hit two major sites (plus maybe 1 or 2 lesser sites) per day. The things you want to see/do are just about physically impossible in the time you have. You have SERIOUSLY underestimated how long some things take, how crowded some places are, and how long it take to get from place to place.
soooooo the LP impresses with the loooooong list of covered sites, but most visitors don't/can't get to enough of them to make the stupid thing pencil out. Just great marketing.
So - knock your socks off -- run around ticking all those sites off your list, but with not really having much time at any of them.

<<Either you're cruising both days to justify your purchase, or you're wasting time.>>
You are right, when I planned the schedule I was trying to justify the usage of the Pass.
I hear you all, I have decided to stick with 2 for 1 and opt for a more leisurely itinerary.
Thanks everyone for your thoughts and opinions!
