I never got a bad splice from a shop, but paying somebody else $20-30 to tie my shoe gets old. Splicing is not that hard to learn and worth learning especially in this business. It will take some practice and $ to learn but soooooooo worth it.
It's all new to me but I am no master splicer. It doesn't look right to me. From what I read it's a double braid so my understanding is that it's 2 ropes in one, core and cover sharing the load 50/50. Sorry I am not more help.
You don't have to use a locked brummel a straight bury will be just as strong if not stronger, but a straight bury is very easy to undo when not loaded. That is why with a straight bury whipping or lock stitching is key.
