Touché @Mike ;-)
I prefer to believe that we are both right. You are able to seal your reed even though the overlap is "wrong", while I from experience prefer not to try.
Attached a pic of two blanks, recently tied:
Left: P.Angelo shaper, 46mm staple, tied at 73mm, ~6.9mm wide at the tip
Right: Pisoni #3 shaper, 47mm staple, tied at 72.5 ~7.2mm wide at the tip
I'm a leftie, I wrap over the top, which is why the tiny overlap is on the right-hand side and the crossover thread descends rightwards.
Both blanks seal like a drum. Not that that proves anything (as I'm sure Mike will point out).
