Nevertheless it's a useful reminder. An easy mistake to make even for an experienced climber, in a moment of inattention.

He didn't use the word "incompetent" so I don't know why you're putting quotes around it. And he didn't imply anything about the injured climber being incompetent either, he just asked whether the sport had suddenly gained popularity, due to the spate of recent accidents (ie. not this one in particular). But now we're splitting hairs.
