In regards to why I felt it might compromise the knot, anything that makes it easier to untie seemed like a bad thing to me. It is not like a rethreaded figure eight where you have matching strands.
The knot we are all thinking that you are asking about
is a rethreaded figure-8, with the addition of having the tail tucked back through the knot, as depicted below.

If that's not the knot you're asking about, then ignore all our answers so far.

I never knew that was a legitimate version of the yosemite finish. I've always seen an extra wrap (described on the website you got that picture from,
). I'm surprised I've never seen anyone tie their yosemite finish that way. Glad I knew better than to call you out on it without double checking
