Tricky one this.  IMHO there is something similar with the outrigger.   I am
sure that the tendency to lurch about while taxying and in the landing run-out
would be improved (along with safety) if the legs were stiffer,  but then  a
similar question  arises ,  better to have a bent outrigger and possibly
prop. damage, than wing damage ?  .
