On the other hand, this setup will likely reduce the number of mangled touchpads, and makes it easier to apply a 3-5 pound force to the touchpad while you're pulling on the rope with 100+ pounds of force.
But yes, it's going to be rough for teams whose winch or chock is right at the top of their allowable volume.
