It’s such an interesting hobby; there’s always a few things that can be tweaked to see if a different design works. Subtle changes can make a big difference. I like your point about how a channeled amsteel suspension allows the hammock to move, avoiding stress spots. That video is impressive.
How many nights do you think a channel design is reliable for? I will admit that one of my hesitations about building an Ariel was the fact that I was concerned that the sewn-on fabric channel may not be as robust as a rolled webbing design.
