I've said that and been told that on many instances Kieran! Usually on multipitch routes with hard moves right off the belay. I don't want to fall into my belayer and have them let go. Serpentine springs to mind as a route with a nasty fall directly onto your belayer. In this situation I always ask my belayer to use a grigri. And if they don't have a grigri i get them to tie a backup knot 5m down the rope so if they let go the knot acts as a backup.
