I don't. I don't carry biners when I hike (maybe a small S-biner, but not a big one). I still use a toggle...probably not going to change.
I know him...I hike and kayak with him all the time. He still uses a toggle too!
I think this whole conversation is over-emphasizing the occurrence of the loop slipping off the toggle, and I've never seen a toggle 'fall out'. It doesn't really happen if the hammock has any weight in it and you paid any attention when setting it up. It would be possible to mis-tie the clip hitch as well....
If you like the clip hitch, you should use it. The functional demonstration from the video works just like a marlinspike hitch as far as setting up and breaking down quickly.
