I agree that a glitchless category would be a good thing to have - it's not like it'll take away from anything that's already there. The fact that some marathons require a leaderboard makes it all the more of a good idea imo. I don't believe we would need to move around any old runs that are 'glitchless' but are so old that most of the clips we use weren't known of. It makes more sense to me to leave them as they are cause back when they were submitted, they were done so as any% runs anyways. That and I doubt any of these people with year old runs would be bothered to remake a run just to keep their spot on the leaderboard.
I'd be down to see more categories anyways, we could definitely have more than just 2
As someone who hasn't managed a full run yet, I dont see the harm in a glitchless category. It would be somewhere for people like me to start in and work up to learning all the wall clips etc. So long as it is clearly defined (as elsiz has been doing ^^) it should be good :) And add all of the points above too
