You guys are assuming that somehow you just HAVE to climb that one peak. And since Hypothetical Peak has a short 4th class section by the easiest route, then if you want to climb Hypothetical safely you have to rope solo.
What I'm saying is that if you are going to have to drag a rope along to safely get up the 4th class Standard Route on Hypothetical Peak, you'd be better off heading for the 3rd class Cakewalk Scramble Ledges on Big Easy Mountain across the valley. You can come back and climb Hypothetical later, when you are experienced enough to not need that rope soloing gear. Don't drag the mountain/route down to your level - choose a mountain appropriate to your experience and aptitude.
