It does if you can't do the moves. A grade 20 climber won't have much fun on a 27, whereas if you chip it back to 19...

Only because you're selectively applying the logic in your own arguments.

Que? We're talking about the new sport routes, which didn't have any fixed gear until they were bolted. Some of the old routes have carrots, some have FHs but the key is that they (mostly) only have bolts where there aren't other gear options. The new sport routes are completely bolted, ignoring the many gear options along the way.
