Split rings increase your chance of being cut off if you tie direct...the sharp edge of the split ring will move against the line and cut it...

Scott,
I don't think it happens any more than tying direct to the lure eye. With either case, you need to check the knot frequently for integrity. Also, you need to tie on to a split ring where it is only single stranded, not where it is doubled up. Otherwise, what you suggest happens will happen, and at the worst possible time.
Thanks for the care package you sent to FCC. Wasn't sure what was in the box until I opened it.
