I'd probably object even more to a statue on Neiphin than I would to one on the Reek since neiphin is still a lot more untouched than the reek.

But it's not in a national park or nature reserve, isn't a national monument and doesn't have cultural significance. So why not stick a statue on it?

I get what you're saying about your experiences and thats great, I wouldn't begrudge that to anyone (a train up wouldn't appeal to me personally though), like I said, those things are there now and are famous the world over.

The train to Pike's Peak has a cultural significance in its own right, as the world's highest cog railway. It's also a way for less physically able people to access a mountain that would otherwise be inaccessible to them.

I simply place value on nature areas regardless of them having an official designation
