This kind of "ethics" is common in many different areas.
For example in rock climbing there's no cheating, only lying.
There's nothing wrong with hangdogging a route (relying on the rope/gear to rest while ascending a route) but if you then tell people that you redpointed the route (climbed the route start to finish without relying on the rope/gear) then you're a liar.
