a good rule of thumb is to carry a wrench with you (an old open adjustable one) and tighten any loose bolts first, and then notify developers like "Team Suck" to tighten them to standard torque.

Gosh! That IS a good idea!

Or take some responsibility for your own climbing safety and tighten them, since you are the one who is aware/concerned about the safety of the bolts. Novel idea, I know.
