Most of the I/N 20 guys I knew ,including me , used 2 footstraps behind the beam for weight adjustment,i.e. your back foot was in one or the other depending on how bow down you were, not for both feet. I would expect that felt pretty off balance.

If a man is to be obsessed by something.... I suppose a boat is as good as anything... perhaps a bit better than most.
