Anyone that can should be out of discs by then anyway. Mostly FCSs, though a good couple of pyramid shooters can run out too.

Climbing faster means you can play defense on another climber longer. If a 10-pointer is trying to slow down a 30-pointer, the faster the latter is the more likely the are to make it up in time. A 30-on-30 would be even more interesting...like playing chicken.
