Here is what Ron had said:
_____________________________________________________________________
What happened to the "tongue weight"?
Nothing. The coupler still is pressing on the ball with a force of 900#.
Well, the loads on the TV's axles INCREASED by 1350-450 = 900#. Where did that come from? Some trailer weight must have been transferred from somewhere.
Nope, the 900# on the axles simply results from a
relocation of the 900# reaction which previously was provided by the tongue jack
. The loads on the TV's axles have changed, but the "tongue weight" has not changed.

Those words in red "relocation of the 900# reaction" are the key to Ron's thinking. Notice how he totally avoids anything to do with the words tongue or weight or distribute. However Equal-i-zer says:
the trailer tongue-weight gets carried on the back axle of the tow vehicle
This is the first thing we need to deal with in my opinion. The WD system has not even been engaged yet and there is a difference in what (or at least how) the manufactures say happens and what Ron is saying. I think we need Ron to expand on and clarify this point.
Ron is it wrong to say "tongue-weight gets carried on the back axle of the tow vehicle"?
