I think it would be unfair on other climbers to have a voluntary ban on repeat ascents. Its a 'cutting edge' route (no pun intended) so there is no doubt that most elite climbers will want to have a go. If the majority want to show their displeasure at the 1st ascentionist's actions perhaps the next addition of the guidebook could withold recognition. For example the route might be recorded as M? 25m 34 Chipped! The 1st ascentionists name would not be recorded and no stars would be given to the route. In reality this route and the first ascentionists actions will become infamous so the grapevine will let everyone know who made the 1st ascent. Estey
