I think part of the point that's being made is that the mountain, so to speak, in this case isn't an unreachable third-party or inanimate object...it's a community made up of everyone here. So it's not just that the person climbing could be doing something better (and they probably could~), but the 'mountain' is made up of actual people who can reflect on themselves and the ways they shape the community.
If I'm not the only one who's felt this way (and by many indications, I'm not), isn't it possible and even kind of likely that the static 'mountain' in this case is the common thread between those having issues? Certainly not everyone has to or will care about this kind of thing and that's fine - but if you're someone who thinks of yourself and/or your community as 'inclusive', then it's worth considering the problem from multiple angles. That's why I'm pleading that in as much as I'm going to try to be more direct with people through /tell, tunnel-vision and all that can be addressed from the top down, as well.
