Double Sheet Bend; but it's fine

I was somewhat surprised to find that in 10mm rope, the double sheet bend started slipping at around 10kN and then continued to slip until coming apart at around 13kN. In the same rope, a figure-8 rethread bend did not slip and broke at 18kN. Testing videos includes double sheet bend variations compared to figure-8 rethread variations in 10mm rope and 8mm cord.
