I am pretty sure I know what your anchoring theories are ....but just happen to strongly disagree with just about all of them.
As I ave posted before, if one starts with bad assumptions, theories fall apart quickly.
The most basic one..... it is better to use chain only near the anchor or use exceptionally large chain near the anchor. Well for maybe a teeny, tiny bit of better holding, a cruiser with all chain and a good windlass is going to struggle with Frankenstein ground tackle? I think not.
