I agree.
I don't think AS designed in/out any flex. The construction method allows flexing. This method was created by the aircraft industry. It is just my opinion but I doubt AS did any studies as to how much flex a trailer had and what effect it had on the trailer. I would think too much flex puts adverse stresses on the trailer more than not enough. If what is preventing the flex is capable of handling the stress, I would think that this would
alleviate other flexing and stresses.
Weight is a balance (side to side, front to back) issue, a TV issue, and an axle/shock/tire issue. Weight not directly supported by the frame adds to this complexity.
I am not an engineer so all that I have said is only worth, well, not much.
