I've read that ages ago and I believe in the importance of both style/ethics in my own climbing but 1/ it's not relevant re John's effort and 2/ still don't appreciate your efforts to throw cold water on John's efforts.

I don't even know John but I've had mates who have only gotten to the top of a mountain/climb cos they were guided. They know what they did and didnt do. They understand the difference between climbing the thing and being guided up it. I also have mates who go out and do their own thing, put up new lines, whatever. so what.

If it's not your thing you don't have to do it. You don't need to belittle someone else's efforts.

Breathe in breathe out. Let it go. Find it in you to be a bigger person than that.
