The other way of looking at it is who cares.
Let the misguided fools who are still genuinely impressed by someone putting other climbers and an extensive sherpa team at risk so they can be safely guided up everest (because it is the highest) worry and fret about if the ascent is fraudulent or not.
The rest of the climbing community can just get on with their climbing and leave the idiots in the everest ego circus to get overexcited about things.
