I don't think this kind of thing will be news in a few years' time - climbing will inevitably go the way of gymnastics whereby the best in the world are young due to their better power:weight ratio.

Have you seen the muscles on Aidan Roberts?  He isn’t exactly pre puberty which I guess is what you are suggesting comparing with gymnastics.  I know where you are coming from though
