Going for golden deck with Highways.

That does not sound terrible. Once you get the deck to Bishop+$7+ in Treasure+Highways, you can just trash Highways until you get to the real Golden Deck. It does sound slow, though.

Well if you find about it when 3 Provinces are left... it is.

Why do you need to trash your highways? They're cantrips so as long as you only have bishop + province + 2 treasure cards, you will still draw your deck.

Trashing Provinces gives you less VP.

I would imagine the idea would be ot just run the province pile to end the game. Though with enough Highways, you could have a deck of bishop + 3 provinces, buying a 4th, plus bishop points. With that many points, eating a few provinces for 1 point would be fine. Obviously this is a contrived situation, but if your opponent was going for some sort of alt-vp, you might consider it.

Well the main issue is that Bishop gives far fewer VP after you play a bunch of Highways.

At the end of a really long game in which I built a mediocre University/Rabble engine I counterfeited my only gold when I didn't really need to not realising that I'd already counterfeited all of either my silvers or coppers and thus that it reduced my 7 fairgrounds to 4 points.
