The big question is... Can you rope trick underwater: does the extra-dimensional space fill with water or is it kept dry?
It depends. What's the DC for water to climb a rope in D&D 3e?

It is absurd. It’s based on “The Indian Rope Trick”. Like many of the earliest D&D stuff it was just grabbed and put in like a madman’s stew.
if you continued the quote you would see I tried to look up the DC of climbing a rope and could not find any.I don't find arguments like this persuasive when we have the rules of the game explaining how to handle this situation quite clearly.
1) We're talking about D&D and the rules of D&D. Not "real life." So your personal rope-climbing anecdotes are irrelevant.
2) Even if you wanted to base a mystical DC on "real life," this is a magic spell. Which, shocker, doesn't exist in real life. Assuming the rope is magically easy for anyone of any strength to climb isn't any more of a stretch than using the same level of spell slot to teleport 30 feet.

A 30' rope is constrained by what it means to be a 30' rope, though.
I haven't read that thread, but while a DM is entitled to rule that something is "strenuous," that sounds like a very weak argument to me. It's not even clear to me what goal is achieved by holding such a viewpoint.
As far as I can tell? The goal of winning an argument on the internet about whether or not wizards can heal.
