Thanks MB; the pic was an "Oops I missed a spot!" kind of thing. It was on the opposite side of the main damage, which I had just finished tracing. Strapping over staples, I like that!

Wait and See was what? If the loose bark is not traced, the callus can form a cavity(left), instead of closure (right).

There's plenty of science and knowledge, based on results from practice. If you are looking for formal research, fuggedaboutit. This practice is not making profit for the corporations that fund the research, so there is none. they preach "Wait and See" instead of guiding callus to cover wood.
