The traditional old school teaching was weight belt last to ensure rapid release. ...
Correct.
We did not have BC's when I started, but used "safety vests" instead, with a crotch strap. The weight belt went on over the safety vest crotch strap so that it would not snag when released. Today it is different, and "weight belt last" not as necessary.
Best wishes.
