From a civilian experience, classroom only, I've found the rats equally easy to apply without slipping around. It has to be staged with the loop prethreaded. It does take some effort to get tight loops wide enough to fully stop blood flow (by felt pulse as we didn't have stethoscope or other medical equipment available in the class I took). Once the first loop around the extremity is complete, additional loops seem to be easier to pull tighter and spread to 2 or 3 chord widths especially on arms. I was able to do this without cheating up, classroom environment so obviously only as much of a fully dead limb as I'm capable of pretending to have. I find cat and sof-t to slip more easily with sof-t taking the most effort to avoid slip. I don't have one otherwise I'd try again now.
What's really questionable about the rats to me is the company "TCCC" that approved it vs the board. It looks like the company was made just to approve it.
