Anchor Radar a waste of everything?

[Breath of The Wild Ass]

It detects anchors which already appear on the map and have a deep yellowish glow when you drive up next to them?

There is a specific condition where the anchors cannot be located on the map (they ping randomly on the arc screen). It's the only place you will ever use the anchor radar. Well, that and if something launched you in the air and the anchor landed God knows where, which isn't that hard if you are near blacksmiths, snatchers and god knows what else (if you don't have the grip gloves).

Tbh, the whole anchor radar gimmick should be some sort of higher difficulty thing, as it is right now, i can't even remember if this condition applied beyond stable anchor areas, not that i recall.

It would be less cringe were I to have to play a rhythm game to escape.

Higher level anchors start having a significantly higher search area. Often in places you don't want to trudge around for too long inside.
