Default Similar splice is used for single braid nylon

My storm rode lines are made up from 1" nylon 12-strand single-braid, and the recommended splice is to
1. Split the end into two bundles of six each.
2. Pass one bundle of six through the standing part
3. Marry adjacent strand of opposite twist, to create three bundles on each side.
4. tuck each bundle back along the standing part, over one and under two.

If done on the spectra it would be painfully slow but would be shorter than the normal bury.
Could also do a lock splice to make the eye (A thru B, B thru A) and a very short bury, with stitching.
