I have a hard time being brief when I need to vent. I'm glad to see that you all have a sense of humor about my long drawn out posting ! Here's the condensed version in "let's get your opinion" format because I do want the issue addressed.
Ever noticed social stigma between climbers because of ability and preference? What is your opinion about it?
I bring this up because I am tired of hearing excessive banter about trad climbers hating sport entirely, and because I don't like my local gym due to the snobby-nosed attitudes people have about what one can and can't yet climb.

You won't find real trad climbers in the gym. Those were just impostors!

We really don't need 2 of these threads, so it's going to be locked. No hate intended!
