How we gonna mythbust dat? The EDK or overhand flat knot is best used to prevent the snags you mention, as it has the ability to Sled over an edge as apposed to a knot where the rope exits the centre of the knot as in a barrel knot or a reef knot, the reef is particularly dangerous as it can invert or "capsize" into a slip knot and fail completely. great site, tells it as it is.
