Maybe I should have been more clear - the above quote was Terry's last response to the argument - and doesnt really reflect what I and some others were arguing.

My argument was solely based on point a - that the route may lead to climbing getting banned or managed at MTK. All the other points were irrelevant to the argument (except for maybe point c which relates back to a). I'm not really sure why Terry mentioned those.

I'm not going to re-write my argument for point a, if you want to read it go look at the transcript, everything that can be said is there.

On the consensus point I'm not really sure how much more consensus you can get: despite mentioning it in three forums and talking to people whilst out climbing you are the first (aside from Terry) who has questioned the chopping. Not that there is anything wrong with you disagreeing but I'm not sure how much more consensus I can get.

Edit: I'm not meaning to jump down your throat for disagreeing.
