Typically a trailer axle to rear wheels is going to be longer than front wheels to rear eheels, so reflected weight is less than half the weight transfered to the front wheels which is where my flyer of a 100 pounds is coming from. Sure could be 200 or even more sure, a very short but very heavy front trailer it could be 300.
That would be truly ironic if someone thought more was always better to the point of taking too much weight off the rear wheels with weight distribution, and ending up with worse stability.
