I think the monostay is brazed. Not so much welding on steel frames in these days. I would guess the issue with the clamp is that the 2 blocks are very rigid and are shaped like an arrow that points forward. All stress will concentrated at that point at the joint, what could lead to deformation.
This is a nice example of a very sophisticated clamp solution >>
