I'm currently brainstorming a yellow gold engagement ring for a client with a 1.8ct marquise diamond. Active lifestyle, hands on healthcare job, but not a fan of bezel or v-prongs. I want to do a six prong setting with a gallery rail and was thinking of doing a double-prong look. Are double prongs like the ones below a good alternative to v-prongs or are they just an aesthetic choice?

image context: one style is a fused double prong look and the other has them separated with the point sandwiched.
