Thanks for the link Tim. You're right of course, it ain't locked, can't be, never is. What these folks are talking about is the situation where they are in a tight turn such that one of the links has gone past center and then they jam on the TV brakes. In that situation, the TT and hitch will continue forward until the links interfere (hit the stop). This might be 3 or so inches, but it can be quite disconcerting. Since the TT is going in a different direction than the TV, 3" of movement for the TT may be nothing at all for the TV.
Oh, and it's not going to be side to side. The TT is going to continue in the same direction it's pointed until it "hits the stop." The only way it can go to the other side is if the TT reverses (backs up) which is quite unlikely in this scenario.
