RE: What would you have done differently??
Nostalgic,
I believe that is what they call 4 points of contact when it comes to wrapping around that securement point. In the picture you have the chain touching 2 points (or corners) on the spool and 2 points (or ends) on the pocket. That gives you the 4 points. 2 points will take the stress when moved in one direction, the other 2 points will take the stress when pulled in the other direction. Its the same reasoning why WLL are different from direct connection (half of indirect) and indirect connection(double direct). Direct takes all the force all the time, indirect trades off or shares stress between 2 points.

The WLL of using a pockt and spool is often different than using just the pocket alone.

The way DDlight is attaching to them is 1 or at best 2 points directly to one side of the pocket. Its not pocket & spool or just pocket WLL rating. Its only half a pocket. Which has no rating.
