Many thanksBowline accomplishes the same, and is tried n true.I would be curious as well as to some opinions, I learned the perfection loop well before the bowline and when I tie the two knots in dynamic rope the perfection loop seems way more bomber than the bowline.
Bowline uses less line*, maybe more compact, and might be easier to untie, and has a working end that emerges inside the loop.
When it comes to knots I always feel dyslexic.
I've never used the perfection loop for climbing as it never has any mention, I do use it often for fly fishing. It is the easiest way to make a small loop in the end of a leader or tippet that will lie perfectly in line with the standing end.

Works on both light and heavy mono and fluorocarbon lines. The Perfection Loop is a good knot to tie thick stiff 175# - 400# mono to big live bait 9/0 or circle 14/0 hooks for large bait, chunk rigs, and kite leaders. But I played around with the knot in climbing rope materials out of curiosity. But like other fishing knots, "untieability" is not a required feature, and the knot can be very hard to undo after loading, which is why I ultimately went back to the bowline.
