I hear what you're saying, but I can't help feeling it will be a more satisfying route for him if he is intimidated by it.
I bet if you took all the good holds from near-bye routes you can 'rainbow' route your way up.

How long does it take to hike from Sam Mack to the start of the route, approx?
Thanks,
Does anyone know if this aid route has been done clean? If so, any idea at what level? Any other random beta would also be appreciated. Thanks,
Great TR Julie. The Dike is most definitely a committing route. Thanks for taking the time to share it with us.

Sounds like this should be called the cowboy pitch.
Also sounds like a fun route!
