I found that using a girth hitch with webbing works better. It lay flat on it's self, same reason we use a water knot (over hand knot) in webbing instead of 8's.
I know, "if it slips....." like bome prof says. If you generate that much load on an anchor, a little slip is not a bad thing. I just tie a short over hand loop and clip it to the same bineer for a back up stop point.
