Agreed, but I take exception to Everest and Kilimanjaro being put in the same bucket. Climbing Kilimanjaro is evidence of: appetite for travel; willingness to take on challenges; reasonable fitness; good will power. ~10,000 people do it each year. It's probably two or three sigma off Olympic / Everest standard - not that Everest is the pinnacle..
