Is this "too much" shoe for me? I've tried it...

Is this "too much" shoe for me? I've tried it on twice in the store. The fit is perfect and the rubber impressed me (at least on the store's mini climbing wall). The shoe also felt reasonably supportive, which is important to this fifty-something guy. I've tried on a dozen different pairs and haven't found anything I like better. I was ready to buy it until I read a couple of reviews here that suggest it's for >5.10 climbers. For me, a 5.9 is usually a project. Other than the price, is there some reason I should avoid the Galileo?

There is no such thing as too much shoe. These shoes are awesome. The fact that you don't climb 5.10 is no reason not to buy. If they fit you, go for it. Who knows, maybe they'll bump your technique up a notch and you will be climbing 5.10.
