The reason I do not enter any of them, as I am famous for getting lost, even in my own area of the West Pennine Moors. It would take a lot of low level races to build up to them. But that is me acting responsible as a competitor, just as the seasoned runner would not race if they were injured.
With the refugees from other sports coming in, so will the impulse entering (which you hear of on here) "My first fell race and I entered X,Y, or Z" like they have for the London Marathon.
