 I just watched the video....I probably won't be adopting the method. 
 
Advantages: 
- Allows you to take a well-made reed with the right opening but out of tune and replace it on another staple to make it play in tune. 
- Possible vibrational aspects discussed on KGE website, http://shop.kge-doublereeds.com/ 
 
Disadvantages: 
- Takes longer to assemble blank reed than with traditional thread. 
- More delicate and looks like the cane can more easily shift around on the staple, especially while scraping. 
 - More expensive to make. Ligatures add $.60 per reed, and you need sealing tape as well. Ligatures are not reusable. 
- Greater quantity of staples of different lengths required to keep in stock in order to make changes.
