I recently came up with a way to make an adjustable VT that also self tends. It’s a 4-2 VT that replaces the braids with half hitches, which makes it grab reliably, while almost being effortless to tend. It’s either a Granny, or Square knot depending on how the second Overhand is tied.
Compact, doesn’t bind up so it’s always easy to release and descend, self tending is another desirable feature. The complexity of tying isn’t a con, practice, or cell phone reference takes care of that.
