The spikes on the ladder sweeper things also seems excessive, a fall from that height is going to do work by itself

I mean really they shouldn't have left those ladders sitting there, if they didn't want someone to use them. Always put your tools away when you're done with them. Saves a lot of trouble.

How are those even deployed? It looks like they would only work on ladders set right in front of them.
