I've never heard of that technique - have you got a picture, drawing or name for it .....
I've looked on these two sites:

I think you might mean a surgeon's knot, which is not "tied-off", but serves as a locking mechanism .....
Using that on every "cross" when wearing boots for a day out, when feet swell, could prove uncomfortable, and even dangerous, if blood supply to the foot is impeded .....
