My first home course (Lum Park) had baskets made by the high school welding class and had 12 very unevenly spaced chains. We played a weekly league and you better believe that we knew the bad spots to land that had 6" gaps with no chains.
Putts that missed by 15' were by no means a gimme comeback putt. High lobbed putts that came in low, just landing in the basket were best because the chains were unreliable. A putt that was too low hitting the basket rim was known as a "Lummed" putt.
Should be an easy enough fix to remove all that inner chain garbage and watch the finesse putters do their thing.
Even better, remove 1 strand of outers as well to ensure a good and bad side to land.
