Great you can walk away after the job done!
.
In my mind, deeper notch maybe would have helped, but just a crap shoot on where hinging from compared to unseen strength (if any) of hinge at that point.
>>and strengths that position depends on in chain... a real crap shoot, i mean more than normally!
.
My in tree chains for this would be 4" yellow web ratchet tie downs high/low on spar and 1 on top;
tighten, knock/vibrate webbing towards ratchet with semi-truck-tire spoon (also good for leverage bar in air), retighten, rinse/repeat several times
>>see if can get spoon into any concave area to come from under web w/spoon, or pick good spot on spar to flatten for approximate same.
>>then sweat webbing tighter , by bending, relaxing so slack creeps around thru frictions, take up slack w/ratchet.
Position ratchet on side, so is not on the hit face on drop, nor on that axis of force, but rather besides it i think is easiest on ratchet.
Leave in position for final drop if suspect hollow continues low into stump too.
.
But, even better was the evacuation plan;
as Mr.Miyagi said, the best way to block punch/win fight "is to no be there"
.
Barber Chair always viewed at ground level, splitting up;
here we have unusual circumstance of splitting down,
(and of just outer layers like a no face peeling off with just outer rings/not whole constitution of spar, just here split too)
but still, the falling forces on hinge over ruled/trumped (yuck) the constitution of the spar.
