"Also, stableford is meant to be played as a quick game, if it's the norm at your club to pick up when you can't score, then do so."

It's true, to avoid slow play, many players will pick up their ball if they cannot score stableford points on a hole. The rules of golf (as far as I can see) say that you must hole out or be disqualified from the competition. I've not seen a rule to cover picking up. Are you saying that this will be a local rule and that not all courses have it?
