That's a good one! Another argument against ground dwellers! I'll be sure to remember this when talking to people about advantages of camping hammocks to ground shelters

First, I assume you mean thirty degrees and not percent.. even still, I'm not sure what you mean by this... I understand that Pack-It-Lite Hammocks are built differently than a standard gathered end hammock but the thirty degree rule is really just about putting less force on your anchors. Less force on trees or posts or cars or hammock stands or whatever your hanging from IS just good common sense.
The point of a fixed RL is so you can hang the hammock consistently, regardless of where or what you are hanging from. It just happens to be the point at which your RL isn't drooping too, (that WOUKD change the sag). When hung at an angle shallower than thirty degrees the feel of the hammock doesn't really change, which is the point.
