I'm with Roy on this one. I never took any physics class, just use my logic (or lack of ;-) with that 4" offset the weight I believe is where the gooseneck mount is and not where the ball is. Now in the case of say an Anderson ultimate where its distributed to essentially four corners then yes the weight is 4 inches back but not in the case offset gooseneck. The only thing that would be different is your torquing or twisting the gooseneck mount but not moving the weight back.
Edit: Didn't think this one all the way through. The twisting force that the offset is providing is in effect lifting wieght off the front and placing it rearward. My bad, I'm a little slow lol
