You make a good point.
My view is the best thing to do is read the book and have it in your truck.
I've had a number of different questions, some to do with registration and others with different regs. In each case I ran them by DMV, State Police, DOT bears . . . whoever seemed appropriate and I have yet to have a consistent answer to any one of those questions.

The regs do not differentiate or even dictate a binder. They require only each component (chain, binder, strap . . .) of whatever is used for restraints to be rated for the load and be tight enough to actually secure the load.
