Agreed. Consistency is what it is all about. Your method is probably more common and more consistent than mine.
I probably cheated myself out of some nice rides this Fall because of the way I counted my climbs. I assumed some rides were harder than they probably were. When evaluating a potential ride I guess, if in doubt, the best thing is to ask how they arrived at the numbers.
