I want to point some of the negatives with lowering over natural crotches.

- Unknown amount of friction
- Undue ware on ropes
- Chance of using a unsuitable rigging just because it is there
- Unable to tip tie/cradle brances because of low rigging point
- Less chance of being able to let branch "run" for a smooth rig
