I've had 3 people in a group rappel on this settup and it still released very easily and 2 of us were not "petite"
A biner is used to secure the releasable until LAMAR.
Seems more efficient than a macrame to me.
In the pics the rappel strand is on the left
I've only used this method once so I'm obviously no expert but it did work good.
I would guess releasable systems are used very little, just a tool for a particular situation.
