An experienced leader of novices would tell you that anyone knows how to climb a ladder

A solid one leaning against the side of a building, yes, but a wire one free hanging in a cave, no they wouldn't. An experienced leader of novices could tell you lots of anecdotes about novices who couldn't climb a ladder.

Ever heard of 'self lining?'

Actually, not only have I heard of it, but I've also used it both on the surface for practice and underground for real. I find the question somewhat patronising and totally unnecessary.
