Yep, i'd agree there Judas. Although Snooker delivers a spectacle of Skill to viewers, once you know what can be expected of a top Snooker player, the attraction faids. Excitement is squeezed into a few moments at the end of a close game, or when safety shots are at there best.

If you contrast the Atmoshere of a Darts game to a Snooker game, there is the problem

Cricket developed 1 day 50 over's cricket for this very reason, and Chess developed Speed Chess also. Hard to say how Snooker could evolve a faster, more exiting version of itself. But i would love to see it.
