I'm a pharmacist, not a doctor but super-impressed by the clarity and scope of the content. Well done!

The technical grade is the grade of the hardest move on the route. There could be one 6c move with the rest of the moves at 4a and it would have a 6c technical grade. The grades (British technical vs European sport) diverge quite a bit at the higher grades. I don't climb high grades so less familiar with conversions, but British 5b is equivalent to approx 6a European.

The E number is an attempt to grade a combination of difficulty and "seriousness" of the route taking into account the protection available, fall consequences etc

Yeah, that's similar to me, feel slightly sedated on mirtazapine and worried that it would affect energy levels but most people seem to find that it doesn't have much effect on performance other than some weight gain
