You know, I think we actually agree that this is in fact the argument. All the other stuff that has been presented to justify keeping ben lomond bolt free is just a way of justifying what the advocates really believe - a romantic idea of a bolt free crag. That's fine if that's then the line they then argue. But I think you might be the only person admitting that that is the argument.
