Why are the beacons impractical? They're based on real historical beacons in Wales and Ancient Greece. Do you mean because they were on the very top of the mountains rather than along lower ridges as in the books? That was just a cinematography choice, I think, since they were filming in a national park and weren't allowed to light actual fires anyway.

Yes, exactly that. The poor buggers up top would freeze. I lived near a couple of beacon hills in Worcs, and was at this beacon-site https://www.crichparish.co.uk/newwebpages/crichbeacon.htm l for the quadricentenary of the Armada, and you don't need to be on a giant mountain to see a distant bonfire at night.

But the visual in the film was just stunning, I'll grant you that.
