Single continuous harness for more than 20 years. My GF had a regular adjustable BCD
I asked her several times, maybe I even nagged, why she won't convert to bp amd single harness, she refused. Once, I lent her my rig, she came out of the dive and told me I can go find myself a new rig. Then she became my wife, although I suspect the single harness doesn't have much to do about it but who knows...

My son started with adjustable harness, after less than a dozen dives asked me to remove and replace with single webbing.

It is not just the risk of buckle failure- although seen a few cases over the years- it is simpler to replace, less bulky, looks neater, and you set it once and forget about it for several years. Can't think of any disadvantages to it. Heck, it even has some chances of getting one married 😅
