Hmm fall factors are entirely irrelephant. 2m fall on 2m lanyard plus 20m line means FF of 0.09 anyway... 15kN generated by a climber? Bull shit. Maybe in theory but given your body breaks at around 6kN im more worried about your spine. 5:1 is a fairly standard safety margin, used to be 8-1. The reason is stuff gets stressed abd damaged if loaded to just below breaking strain, cyclic loading makes it go snap. Hence safety margins and working load limits(Safe working load)
