I’ve always used the internal strap, rather than cutting a buttonhole. It also makes moving the straps, in case of waist shrinkage, or expansion, much easier.
Interesting idea. Do you place the buckle on the under apron and the strap on the left inside of the over apron or the other way around? I think buckling an inside strap would be easier the first way with the buckle on the left side of the under apron. The left external buckle and strap has always been a bit awkward for me but I manage.

Does the buckle under the over apron cause any discomfort in the left waist when trapped underneath the over apron.
