The strap can be used separately, or threaded through a loop sewn inside
the soft case. I cut the loop off my case because I didn't want the case
attached to the camera and it got in the way when zipping up. The strap
construction and attachment is exactly the same as one end of the normal
strap. When I sold my collapsible elmar I traded the case with the strap,
but I am now thinking I will try to get a strap on its own. It worked well
for me, but I share your concern about the long term effect of all load
going through one lug.
