So anchors that nobody really needs, but they are there so you can say they are and to also get used to them being there?

Superfluous anchors?
Sure is a lot of fun while you're doing it...

Could someone with a little bit more experience than say Jeff please reply, because I seriously doubt all those walls have training anchors.

Ya I read in the guidebook that most people fall trying to clip the anchors on Ro, and so I wanted to do a lot of training on some training anchors.
