Jesse's point is that he had to add one or more bolts to that very same route - that despite being a 14c climber on gear, and 12 soloist, he couldn't mentally deal with the poorly protected nature of Steinbok without retrobolting. Thus bringing the climb down to his level. The insinuation is that he should go back to Steinbok, remove the bolts, and climb it in the same style as the first ascent.
