Aside from it being a navigation crutch. I've been told by our SEO

I hear that a lot.
This is one of the great myths of SEO.
What the SEO manager is trying to say is that the spiders want to
crawl through the links.
The spiders don't care if those links are on a page labeled "Site Map"
or "Home Page" or "A page with every link that only spiders care about"
So, if the page is important, link to it from someplace that the
spiders go and your SEO manager will be happy.
