I've done others when it's a completely free-hanging rap down a slab/otherwise clean face, but the EDK works fine, so I usually don't bother. Square backed up with fishermans is a bomber, but still easy to release bend.

Um, no; it does not.
How can you pull a figure 8 knot over a corner and not have the knot touch the wall? It's physically impossible.
