Default Can anyone ID this knot?

Both variants are legal and it depends on the use case. Tail outside is
better, if you have to fix it e.g. around a pole.

But depends on traditions, which kind of bowline (tail inside/outside)
is the correct one


So, could someone explain what the differences are, in practical terms?
How to make a qualified decision which style to use?
