I think it's possible to go too far with these kinds of concerns.  

The carabiner I use is a big one - about 4" long with a heavy spring
and it has never come loose or even close.  Remember it is a backup to
the primary and would never have a load on it unless the primary
fails.  The way I use it, it is always right in front of me where I
can see it and if I should ever make a move where it has some strain
on it I would reposition it.

There are lots of dangers on a tower, but IMO, that one is way down
the list.
