the sentence/question "this bondage tie works for the majority of body types"

I prefer to reframe / specify if one means the model or the rigger + model.

"works", for clarity, we can replace with: feels stable mechanically, needs or not pain management, reduces nerve or injury risk.

I suggest this for clarity, not for bitching.

I see a lot that sentence, and usually implies the model.

I am a small, feather weight, not physically strong person with back issues. I tie much bigger people. that sentence mostly well intended, usually doesn't include me and my constellation.

in my teaching since 2010 etc I very seldom I saw a tie that works for everybody: one always needs adaptations or completely new structures. the amount of variety - nerves, motoric conditions, weight distribution, pain sensitivity and location, flexibility (a lot, mid, none), skin, preferences, fear, muscle tone, etc..

and in that is where beauty lies.
