|It's now recommended to stick-clip the 2nd bolt on this route as the 1st bolt has been moved left to accomodate the original line|

I think its crazy that the first bolt on this climb was chopped and moved left for a contrived 5.12 variation that could have been climbed by stick clipping the second bolt, or by climbing a little left of the original bolt placement.
Sport climbing is not about putting the bolts were you want people to climb. Sport climbing is about finding a NATURAL line that does not provide natural protection, and then you add the bolts accordingly.
If you dont want to bolt another 5.10 and want to put up something hard, then find something hard. Please dont try to make a hard climb.
