Re: 210mm ?

Not sure what you mean by 210mm being too long? If the TC was 2x I would be shooting at 300mm if I could fit the scene in the sensor. It all depends on how large of a scene you aim to capture.

When we are down to the size of ants and smaller the macro lens will be more useful I'm sure.

By too long, I meant that maybe it could have been easier to be closer and have a shorter focal length but you couldn't because you were already at the minimum focus distance of your lens. Having a long lens means that it is harder to frame and to stabilize.

Note: you in fact have already answered my question in your other answer.
