"XTC - The economical alternative - This rope was designed specifically for the demanding needs of the professional arborist. XTC is a tight braid consisting of 16 individual strands of DuPont's Dacron polyester plied over "Para-ep" Olefin. A high twist core of torque balanced polyester keeps the construction firm and round, providing an extra measure of safety. XTC is an excellent choice for both climbing line and bull rope due to its non-snagging, abrasion-resistant construction and excellent energy absorption characteristics. Color: White."

This is what I use for everything (climbing, lanyard). It's a really good bang for your buck, and when I bought this gear at about 15-16, I didn't have much buck. It's doing just fine a few years later. You seem to know way more than I do on this topic.
