Rope - Eye Splice

Since Q&A is down right now, I am interested in your opinion on an eye splice (http://www.animatedknots.com/splice)

I believe either taking a few small diameter ropes and weaving them would be legal under I04-D or the splice may count as a knot per I04-F. What are your thoughts?

If this is legal, do you think it is legal to have the end of the splice be "... whipped, fused, covered in heat shrink or tape, or dipped in a coating material to prevent fraying" per I04-D? The fused part would at the end of the eye splice at the top of the loop.

Thanks!
