Boulderers need the V grades to not match up so they can assign more personally meaningful differentiation in the plateau ranges (regionally dependent), which is often ~V6-10, by squashing a large amount of meaningful grades down into V2-5.

I call it “Breathing Room” and is one reason the few who maintain bagging ethos/mythos do so with such vigor.
There’s an immediate palpable irony when someone says that this is not true but you ask “who plateaus sooner or longer, the newer climber who has to work through the sea of bagged “moderates” before arriving at the often soft classics or those that are endlessly projecting hard problems?”

Juxtapose that next to the irony of boasting about bagging but then in the same breath trying to explain how the regional grading system they attempt to curate makes sense…
