Of course, the distinction is:

A) going to 200.5MSW to explore something that is there and 
that you are interested in 

VS.

B) going to 200.5MSW to touch the sand and ascend so that you
can claim a "record".

I'm trying to figure out how (B) is useful for anything, but
I guess to each their own.  Maybe it's the showing that it
can be done, and survived, but Jim Bowden (Batman), and others 
have already shown that some time ago.
