We have the end of one's rope with two senses, both with usexes using at, but we also have at the end of one's rope, unhelpfully set up with one of the definitions on another page. For the first sense of the end of one's rope, the at the... usex could be replaced with usexes using the two "derived terms" with come to the... and reach the... (which should be dropped from the "derived terms" section because they're just links back to this entry). But for the other sense, does it only exist with at (in which case it should be moved there), or does it exist without at (in which case the entry with at should redirect to the end of one's rope)? - -sche (discuss) 06:37, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merged to the end of one's rope, since I can find both senses without at (using the usexes already listed, come to..., reach..., etc). - -sche (discuss) 20:18, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
