A lot of people just don't understand rope management, let alone double-rope management. I often see people clipping their first piece of protection 3 meters above the ground or a ledge with a sling.when there is no risk of rope drag. They don't seem to realise that the piece has been rendered almost totally useless by doing this. Sure, you don't want your first piece to lift out if climbing off a ledge but mostly that is it better tackled by placing a directional rather than slinging your first piece when you're in prime ankle-busting territory.
