Have you seen the location we are talking about?
if you dont believe me take a short length of rope, The mainissue is, the scramble is protectable with fine nuts that can be pulled from above, and inserted/ climbed/ removed in two minutes. Much safer than free climbing,
Wish I had not bothered raising it.

Yes I know it. Been up and down it quite a few times when climbing on east buttress or going between scafell pike and scafell. I know what you are saying about hitting the platform with your feet, but if the sling gets loaded a bit more than expected, then it could hurt - that's all I mean. For someone with experience who knows the limits of the set up (as you obviously do) I'm sure it's a good solution.
