That comment does not make sense. To get to Rwy 22 you must cross Rwy
26 totally. Whether you take Taxiway A7 or A8 seems irrelevant. If
you are stopped after crossing Rwy 26 by a barricade on A8, why would
you think, "OK, let's forget Rwy 26 and just use this one"?

Remember a few of the previous postings.
Had they not been there recently, they would have remembered the taxiway
ending at the runway with the appropriate greater than 90 degree turn to
the runway. Exactly the situation they found themselves in Sunday
morning.

Exactly...except for missing one 45 degree turn, and not noticing the
taxiway and runway lights off to starboard, which you would not see on
arriving at Rwy 22.
