Seems like that's how you would connect it then in those cases but I'd imagine you'll want to pull it off to the side at the top some so it doesn't interfere with shooting.
I just bought one last week and set it up on my ladder stand. I ran it right down the side of the ladder like they did in the video. The line hangs over at least 1/4th of my sitting platform, it a 2 man buddy stand so has a decent platform. It will probably be a nuisance for me but not something i cant learn to deal with. It beats falling out of the tree and not being able to go home to my wife and 2 young boys.
