Yes, good point, that definitely helps.
Anyway, I hardly ever take the pannier off my bike on commuting days. I just put all my stuff in a canvas shoulder bag which I slip into the Carradice and pull it out when I get to work -- much faster and simpler than attaching/ detaching the pannier itself, and the canvas bag is significantly lighter to carry around.
