I understand the spirit of the survey question and the answers so far, but I just want to make the point that the only way you can be forced to settle with only using one knot is if you only know one knot. The rope is the thing you possess. Knots are techniques; knowledge that cannot be taken away from you. I would never limit myself to using only one knot. They are like tools and each one excels in it's place.
Always fun to sit around with a couple of people and a piece of cord and teach each other different knots. Hard part is remembering them all.
