Seaguar vs Orvis Tippet vs Triple Surgeon Knot

These 3 knots are very similar to one another.

Thoughts on one or the other regarding leader (or tippet) to additional tippet connection?

It seems the Surgeons is three passes thru the overhand loop.
The Seaguar is two wraps and one pass thru the overhand loop.
And the Orvis is one wrap and two passes thru the overhand loop.

I can tie the Seaguar lightning fast, while the others take a bit more time.
I suspect the Surgeons is a knot that is a little more fool-proof and not as easy to screw up when tying it...
