Spansets against plain webbing

[rigbcn]

Hi everyone;
I was just wondering if anyone would know; why do we always use span sets against just plain flat webbing?. Are there any regional regulations or might be international.

I'm sure Whatrigger will be along shortly to give you a diatribe.
I have a question about your question, however. When you say," span set against just plain flat webbing...." do you mean "against" as in instead of ? or something else.

1.) If by "against," you mean "instead of," see the comparisons in this document: http://www.lift-all.com/PDF/Tuflex/TuflexGeneral.pdf.
