Oh grow a spine.
The dumbing down of climbing to entertain the gym bunnies is getting ridiculous. Leave us some fun off-widths and thrutches with carrots. Not everything needs to be an overbolted clip up.
If the bolts were placed on lead, then you can balance for the few seconds it takes to fit a hanger, otherwise you have no place on the route in the first place.
