I understand what your saying. But it would be my guess that most climbers own 50m ropes. I too noticed the 60m ropes becoming more available over the last few years. I guess what im getting at is, i beleive routes can actually be contrived by length. Not the route in question at all, but there was some route put up in Spian ?? that was given 9a+ or maybe 9b cant remember, the point is the route was 82m long !!!! To me this is contrived, most people would climb 80m in 2-3 pitches not one pitch that you need a "special" rope for. If 60m ropes are the norm now does that mean we can expect people to follow the example above ?? I hope not.
