I'm siding with Weather-Beaten since the term is specific to this form of decay. It's wordier, but it's different from the case of Gift from the Princess who Brought Sleep--that one is wordier because it actually was badly translated and no one jumped on fixing it until it was too late. This is a matter of the wordier version being most accurate, and I actually like it, personally. > > It's just one extra syllable when you get down to it.

Also as the anon pointed out above, there isn't anything to imply Kayo was put up there recently--she could have been around for even a year or so. Since the monk actually calls her weather-beaten in the song, I don't see the logic of saying we shouldn't use weather-beaten because it implies she was weather-beaten.
