I did consider that climbing fixed might assist those whose constitutions fail before their legs do (myself included), being denied the option of an easier ride might help to push us up.
I enjoy the all or nothing approach, but I'm definitely quicker if I can shift.
Empirically, I noticed no difference pedalling up Swain's last Tuesday fixed from my usual freewheel churn (same gearing, just flipped the flop)
