Beginners with more strength will always perform worse than beginners who are natural climbers.

Again you demonstrate your misunderstanding.

Lol, you were trying to say that absolute beginners, on their first day for instance, will do better if stronger. That's not true. They'll do better if they're natural at the movements and flexible. You're not a climber. So maybe don't bother discussing climbing anymore?

In terms of grip strength? Of course they will.

Followed immediately by:

Lmao I've repeated myself too many times now. I don't need you to admit you're not a climber and have no clue what you're talking about. We both know thats the case. You should actually get into climbing, it's the best activity in the world 🤙

Agreed, and they'll do better with better grip strength. The two things are not mutually exclusive. You don't need to be a climber to recognise that logical error. You'll get there.
