I often tie off to trees to go into porch mode and I find the truckers hitch excels in that regard. I just secure it with a slippery half-hitch and it's untied with a pull of the string.
You don't have to use it to its maximum capacity. My car probably does 100 mph but I don't get in and drive that fast everywhere I go. Just because it '"can" doesn't mean you "have" to.
