Weeeelll, whilst handy for the cable car I grant you, I went waist deep into two crevasses on our traverse of the Weissmies on the descent a few years ago. Some newish snow meant the bridges were none too obvious, and we had to pretty much break trail (unusual for such a busy peak). Being on a rope of 4, it was no issue whatsoever, but I do think the Hohsaas approach is fairly well crevassed tbh, and relies on some good tracks to make it straightforward.
If you mean from/back to the Almageller, you are 100% correct, but it's a slog back down is it not? Most folks do the traverse, yes?
Just my experience of it.........
