Default Not always suitable

Dyneema shackles are not always suitable. If you put a thin dyneema cord through a eye spliced in a fatter dacron cord, the thinner line can chafe and cut at the dacron, which is softer. But speaking of dyneema soft shackes, why not splice a toggle into the soft shackle and not lose the strength that the knot takes away?
