> not every climber. Its clearly a different discipline. Thats why boldering/lead is separate from speed climbing.

It wasn't separate in the previous Olympics, that's my point.

>But then lead is different to top rope and sport different to trad. And indoor is very different to outdoor.

Except for trad most climbers I know do a mix of all of these.

Speed climbing is just so different from everything else that I don't even know one climber out of the hundred or so that I know that does it regularly.
