That's what's appealing about the slings. Does the half hitch with a UCR do less damage to the cordage than the buntline hitch that I use on my SMC ring (ala your amazing video)? I could see the UCR being easier to release since you could just pull it back and eliminate the friction and that might be easier on the cordage.
