What trailer sway looks like

I mostly agree with your statement. But to a certain degree design of the trailer frame and loading comes into play. Move the axles as reward as possible and you almost completely eliminate sway. Never see boat trailers swaying. JMO but it seems that too many TT mfg's are not building TT's on TT specific frames. How many TT's have the axles close to the center? Couple that with poor loading and you get a TT that's prone to sway.
Build it right and load it right and no sway control should be needed.

But then there will be more tongue weight and the biggie portion of
the masses (herd or middle area of the bell curve) are the lowest class
of TV's

I see so many trailers trying to stay as close to a 10% DRY weight tongue
as possible

On the money Ben. On the money!

I too have seen that trend. Trying to make the tongue weight as light as possible.

More and more trailers are being built to try and kill you just to keep the tongue weight down. Sad indeed.
