Question To Hensley, or not to Hensley

Okay...

After 1 1/2 years of research, and acquiring, what I think, is an appropriate tow vehicle, I have purchased the Airstream that I think will work out best for my family.

Between the Hensley and the other hitch options, I am looking at an ~$2k price differential. My questions is this...

"Does the Hensley provide a significant design advantage over the other options, regardless of price?"

It is really more of a design issue over a cost issue. I figure that one mishap avoided will pay the cost difference. Safety and Security are paramount. From my reading of applicable posts there is a diversity of opinion. Is there any member of the forum who believes that the Hensley is an inferior design, compared to the other options?
