Your forceful reply is rather unwarranted in light of what I wrote.

The buckles are not quick release. They are by design and intent a multi stage release in which you must first release the tension on the webbing (even counting on "squishiness"). That this can be done relatively quickly and easily, does not mean they fit the description of quick release as per up thread indicating a single action release.

As for the other point, I expressed an opinion (qualified by "probably"). I have used the harness and would be fine with it for cragging or alpine as it is light and easily removed. I would not like to use it on multi-pitch and have never used it for such based on the fact that it was uncomfortable to hang in on single pitch.

edit for spelling and clarity.
