I appreciate both points. I'm more curious that obsessed.

Having some appreciation for the sorts of forces that might be involved in a slackline (relatively high) is precisely why I have steel carabiners. While it is true that the answers will always be wrong, it is good to know the ball parks you are operating in.

It is also to know what you don't know. Eg, the force we have been calculating is actually more of a minimum, and with dynamics it could be much larger.
