It is to short.

I traversed right to the anchors on the middle of whiteout.

Its longer than Green Eggs and Ham hamsco, and you put anchors on those.

That's a long and downward traverse to those anchors as well.

don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the climbing on Sharp.

I enjoyed it so much I wish it went to the top of the cliff.

I traversed into the hueco thinking I would find the "fixed gear",and when I found nothing and not liking the moves out to the left, moved around to the belay on Whiteout.

I would have little problem with someone (including myself) putting anchors on the climb.

Being an established climb on FS land, It would be legal to bolt fixed anchors.

DO it! Being legal and all! Many of us not wanting to go to top of the bolt line would thank you ....

I think there is a finish to Sharp that could be done over the overhang on the face above. If you are going to put in bolt anchors, considering putting a real finish on it.

I'll consider that right along with taking a crowbar to your knees.
