'Crazy Alberto' knot

So someone at a show was talking about a 'Crazy Alberto Knot'.
So as usual I had to investigate.
Well I already knew the Alberto Knot (great knot) so here's what I found.

So it's just the basic Albertro, right?
Some anglers just refer to it as a 'Crazy Alberto Knot' as opposed to just an Alberto Knot.
The inventer is 'crazy'?
I'm not

seeing a difference.

Now the thing I DID LEARN was preping the Braid line.
Scrapping 12" between finger nails to remove the slippery surface off the braid.

This I'm going to use whenever I tie braid.
I realize on a Palmor knot it's probably a waste of time but it can't hurt, right?
But for those who use like a 'cinch knot' or other on Braid I think there is a true value in preping the Braid.
