You are correct (if you put your trailer into a no gravity zone (like outer space). You are my first alien contact on RV.Net.
If you would bring your trailer here on earth, gravity does do its bending thing, if you like it or not. In fact EVERYTHING on earth is bent (past tense), sometimes just bent into a straight line (I know, this will bend (present tense) your brain; double pun intended (yes, gravity bends even the stiffes brain on earth!).
This sounds like somebody educated beyond their intelligence, or acting stupid. Over the years I have bent a lot of steel, (most, but not all on purpose). I have had some sag under own weight when lifting 1 end.
But even a super light duty, like a garden cart, when loaded to capacity, you lift the tongue, the back goes down, but nothing bends. (If it did, you could not tow it without it bending.)
