Although I would commend the dealer and yourself for extra bracing, etc. I would also be slightly concerned with the affect of this bracing.
1) if that tank can shift around it may eventually wear through at any point of rubbing on those angle brackets or any little bumps/bolts on the brackets.. Looks like the dealer did a good job and used wide brackets but I sure wouldn't want to take responsibility for say a 1" angle iron "helping" the situation instead of making it worse.
2) Personally, I would never draw water from the bottom of any tank.. Too much sediment which will inevitably get into your pump and system and cause who-knows-what problems further down the line (pun intended).
To each their own but there could be some downside to these repairs.
Thanks for the uplifting words of support to the OP. Geesh.
