It is amazing what you (not just you, but people in general) think of sometimes.
A lot of work went into designing that old camera strap.
What's funny, is that for the last 20-30 years, we've been "doing it wrong" in terms of the original design of the strap.
Someone, at Pentax, once upon a time thought about making a taper on the rectangular sleeve to accomodate the strap contained within the other straps.
Granted, the way I have the strap is much more complicated, and would explain the "simpler" version that exists to this day.
