Just because a route has bolts on it but also has gear possibilities Does not mean u have to climb it as a sport route. There are quite a few routes around that I have lead on gear without clipping the bolts and at other times clipped the bolts. This is why I don't get too upset as I can choose. This does not mean that I advocate bolting cracks etc. If a pure sport climber wants to only clip bolts then I know how much they are missing out on. It takes all types. Best crack I ever climbed was at a sport crag in Spain. All bolted, but I placed my own gear. Same route different richer experience, my gain their loss.
