Exactly my reasons for asking. Extra width at the cost of less work. How is that not worth considering?
FYI:
I have a 12 ft nylon hammock that I did not hem the long edges. It's about 1.6 oz/yd material.
It is retired now (Dutch and Argon 1.6's fault) but saw over 10 years use and has served hundreds of nights - no issues.
The hammock ends were done in this 'sheet bend knot' manor incase it makes a difference:

Try it - You can always hem it later if needed.
