Solid pro? (new bolts) Yes.
Redundant? Check.
Equalized? Yup.
No-extension, even if a piece failed? Correct.
What's wrong then, you ask! This is a SRENE anchor! Those lockers are even opposite and opposed!
First of all, the business end of the anchor is a CF. I think they tried to tie a double-overhand-on-a-bight, which is a great knot for top-roping. It didn't work though. The knot isn't dressed and webbing is tangled in the carabiners. Anything worth doing is worth doing well, and if you can't properly tie the knot that keeps your ass off the deck, you should probably take a rest day and go get some education.
Secondly, don't run a top-rope like a saw over something that could fall and kill you. At the point that this picture was taken, they had sawed through about a quarter of the top chunk of ice that happened to be perched 30 meters above their belay.
