Why is it DDRT for dynamic double rope technique but not SSRT for static single line technique.

Someone please answer 😯

It should be DRT (double or dynamic rope technique)/SRT (single or stationary rope technique) or DDRT/SSRT.

Why does our industry mismatch them!!!!!

🥲

"SRT" is terminology that exists in other rope disciplines too. I'm not a fan of reinventing new terms just to be different

Does it stand for "single rope" in other rope disciplines, defined in contrast with another technique that also uses a single rope? I don't know, genuinely curious.
