The existence of Hard Severe and Mild VS grades is contentious so I've put this together to illustrate why I think they work. The Hard Severes are too awkward or tricky to be Severe but not technical enough for VS; the Mild VS's are more technical (but not sustained enough to be VS.)
I've only included routes that I've climbed.
