The probability of being a n00b increases exponentially with the number of redundant pieces of unnecessary gear you have clipped to your harness. The most extreme case of this I have ever seen was just two weekends ago at New Jack City, a sport crag. The climber in question was carrying on her harness all of the following at the same time: a PAS, a Chain Reactor, a Purcell prusik, and a huge cordelette. Considering that at a sport crag none of these is really useful, never mind necessary, I think it we can assess her n00b probability to be greater than 99.999%
