If you're doing a solo climb that is set up to counterweight haul then it is imaginable that the pig could fly; and maybe in some other weird scenarios as well. Suffice it to say that if a haulbag falls on a static rope some part of the system is going to break and a Screamer is only going to delay your fate by a nanosecond.
I've used a toy 'biner to attach the haul line to my harness and you could clip it to the anchor when setting up a haul.
Edit: I use a toy carabiner only for securing the rope when it will not be weighted (duh) and the bag is set for a counterweight haul and just hanging off a fifi hook.
