Nothing wrong with the finished look, unfortunately most builders, and consumers don't think it all the way through..... It doesn't take much pitch to get the water to run off, unfortunately all the "stuff" following through the cracks of the deck above are a different story... It should be easy enough to create some access points, that would allow you to put a pressure washer nozzle through and remove the "Stuff" with some pressure once every couple of years...
