As a seasoned climber, you are seeing this in perspective of inspecting a knot, I am referring to a perspective that deals with the situation that what mistakes can a rookie do when he/she ties a knot and end up making a different knot which is identified and named, but not usable.
Oct 14, 2015 at 9:39 comment added user2766 I don't think the issue is getting knots confused, the problem is tying a knot incorrectly. The bowline is a good example of a very safe knot but if tied incorrectly it's difficult to check. That's why climbers use a figure of eight instead, as it's easy to confirm that it's tied correctly.
