The combo either needs a WD with sway control or it doesn't.
Yours combo meets your expectations.
Another 8k lb trailer with a different ball to axle distance or a host of other difference may need a WD hitch with sway control.
Having pulled 5th wheel...GN....pintle hitch...bumper pull trailers from 7k up to 22k lb trailers ,some times for a living, even a one ton drw truck can have sway issues.
I've ran pony for other drivers with their equipment. Some handled very bad and others great...even tho the owners all said their combo had no handling issues.
It simply depends on the combo and what a driver expectations are.
