    Why 7/16 for SRT and 1/2" for DRT?

    PI is near about as good as it gets for an arb rope. DMc swears by Vortex, which is a tiny bit less strechy than PI. For a full on SRT ascent only line...Sterling HTP 10mm.

    Why 7/16 for SRT and 1/2" for DRT?

    You perhaps need to get a bit more picky :)...maybe your trees are not tall enough for the difference between 5% stretch and 1% to strike you much, I dunno.

    Why 7/16 for SRT and 1/2" for DRT?

    I'm with Rajan...but Fi makes good points. It's easy to generalize, and not so helpful, really. Lots of improvements in the ropes we can chose from these days, and lots that are in between the OP's mentioned diameters.
