The question is also the cost for the planet

Many people could climb it, but if too many people take a flight, buy furniture, food, waste all this energy for just this artificial pride, it's really bad.

But that's exactly where the planet is heading

At least when Jornet climbs it with no assistance, no oxygen, it's interesting, because it's more eco-friendly
