In this instance you are correct. If I thought there was any danger of the cam blowing I would have put a limiting knot on that piece as well. This photo was taken after the seconder had finished the pitch and I have taken the belay device off the anchor (I belay directly from the anchor, not on my harness). I also use an auto-block belay device (atc guide) so I can sit further away from the device without worrying about having to lock it off. Also bear in mind that the ledge is quite large and that the cam blowing would not cause me to go over the edge (from memory anyway). I do stongly recommend John Long's new book, it covers all of this.
