I don't know why Crumpp came up with "climb rating for cruising" as no would call it "cruising" when you apply "climb rating".

Exactly...think about it.

Everything setting above that shortens the engine life at a higher rate. Everything below that setting will lengthen the engine life.

It is not a matter of just shortening engine life, it is a matter of reliablity.
It would be more accurate to say:
Everything setting above that is an
overload condition which can cause the engine to fail. Everything below that setting is the
stress conditions the motor was built to withstand continuously.
