Excellent ... it's NOT a dead end.

If you could ONLY get the honey from the bees (which I assumed, and which would have probably been more logical) you would have HAD to use the rope and then it would have been a potential dead-end.

The alternative method you outlined is, IMHO, a bit less satisfying.
I had previously shown the recipe to Ike with no reaction ... hence there is a tendency NOT to try the identical action again!
However, to repeat it a second time is certainly NOT unreasonable (after the bees ‘hint’) but not quite so satisfactory IMHO.
IMHO, it falls into that rather grey area similar to that which Steve Metzler has been complaining about quite recently http://www.quandaryland.com/ubbthrea...0/page/0#10851

This sort of thing is always controversial … although in this case (and many others like it) IMO it is NOT unfair !!
