Gathering heavy lines. Anchor bridles, mooring pennants, a junction where several thick ropes meet and need room to shift without jamming. The 10 mm bar is what carries the load; the 100 mm diameter is about clearance for rope and gloved hands.
No, and it can mean the opposite. The bar gauge sets the strength, while a wider diameter gives a load more leverage to distort the ring if it pulls across the flat. Keep the pull in the plane of the ring and the 10 mm bar copes.
Let the rope move. A round ring is kind to line because there is no corner to sit on, but a rope cinched hard in place will still wear at that spot. Shift the wrap now and then, and rinse the salt out of both.
