OP, your explanation of the sway points to too little tongue weight.
It's a band-aid. If it stops a trailer that sways constantly without a Hensley then something is wrong, generally the trailer is improperly loaded.
A band-aid is something that masks the issue, but never corrects the problem. If the loading isn't fixed then it's a band-aid fix.
I don't disagree that having to carefully load the trailer each trip is ideal, but ending up with the proper setup takes care.
Properly loaded TT's, without suspension/axle issues, will not sway. Sway control should be there for irregular adverse conditions, not needed every inch of every mile.

I agree with you. A Hensley is not considered a band aid but a solution.
