The arete has a problematic start.

The direct start is very artificial (and the positioning of the bolt suggests it wasn't the original way). The top, however, is inescapable and much harder, I think. Very hard for 6a (but then I think all the grades from 5 to 6b+ on the lower tier were awarded more or less randomly.

Artifical ? Inescapable ? Hard for 6a ? Maybe it's easier for the tall but I wouldn't agree with any of those comments.
