I hope I don't offend you if I translate that. And good idea by the way.
He's saying if you want to do some class 5.something technical routes way back in, do some sport routes where you only need a rope, anchors, shoes, and a belay device. Trad means traditional multipitch climbs which require at least 30 pounds of gear added to your backpacking gear, which includes a full rack - 15 to 25 pounds of protective devices.
