The angle between the 'arms' of the protection effects the force within the system. To put it simply, wide angles can result in an increase in the force applied. This is particularly relevant if you are building an anchor with a cordelette or similar. There's heaps of info on the net about this, try the link below or google 'force multiplication cordelette' or something similar.
