Have a look at p 65, please. The sample contest consequences. There you have examples for varying degrees of success for climbing. The same thing. Climbing up is climbing up, just as run to a city is run to a city. But a complete victory is faster and better than a marginal victory.
Maybe my mistake is, if its supposed to be a race, two runners competing who is faster, you wouldnt pit their skills against each other, but pit each individual skill against the resistance of the distance or whatever you wanna call it and then compare the degrees of success. In that way one would pit his skill against the mundane resistance of the distance and the other one with the magic would pit his magic against the magical resistance of 14.
all the best
