I don't see anything wrong with setting up top ropes and not being able to lead. It's how I started to climb....and I took someone out with me who hadn't climbed before and we both bumbled along together. Now we both lead....although he is more exeperienced than me. I would however, probably not choose Buffalo as a place to set up a top rope for newbies. It can be a little intimidating for a first timer, especially if they have to abseil down to get to the base of a climb.
