Could the autoblock being jammed against the cliff-top interfere with the action? I don't know but wonder about the effect of external forces on a device that relies orientation to work. Do petzl or bd have anything to say about this? In practice it would be surprising to not be able to find some irregularity in the rock surface where the autoblock can be positioned so it's not scraping against the rock (granite excepted). You could even put your shoes under the powerpoint just behind the device to get a little clearance.
